The weather continues to be cold and miserable and spring is refusing to come.
I got a haircut today, for the first time since September. It was much cheaper than usual for some weird reason, but I’m not complaining.
For the second paper in my history class I think I’m going to ask students to examine material manifestations of power in Marco Polo and Ibn Battuta. They both do go on about royal courts quite a bit and describes the wealth and riches. My secondary question will ask them to take the author’s context and background into consideration.
