Carousel
I picked Robert up a bit early after the “Springfest” fun at his daycare. That meant we had time to go by the Smithsonian Carousel again. Always a nice treat. Today, we were able to get on the seahorse! (Hard to see in the photo, I know.) I guess he’ll be ready to hold on by himself by the end of summer.

What role does argon play in this photo?

Tee shirt
The Argon shirt was from a fund raiser for Appalachian State University's Chemistry Department (or maybe Chemistry Club). They're are going through the period table with a new element each year -- this shirt is from the 18th year of the fund raising effort. I don't know if they have plans to start over after they've used all the elements or move on to something else sometime around the year 2100 (Chromium was this year's element). I'm pretty sure my brother will have retired long before that becomes an issue.
