local college and univ.

A week ago, I visited Goucher College for the first time. There was a Maryland Early Brass festival going on, last weekend. I went to hear a trumpet professor from Brooklyn College (CUNY) talk about coach and post horns.

I was familiar with the images of post horns, as they're often used by European postal services as a logo. (I'm a stamp collector, albeit a somewhat lazy one.)

This past Tuesday, I visited Johns Hopkins U to check out the JHU Press book sale. The selection was slim by the time I got there (7:30pm). But I managed to find 8 books that looked worth reading. (Although when I might get around to doing so is difficult to say.)

They only cost me $26! That's only slightly more than $3 a book!
