"knowledge remains better"

[eldritchhobbit]

We leave tomorrow (Friday) for a weekend visit to my husband's family in Virginia, in order to spend some time with our new nephew. We should return Monday afternoon. I expect to have a little Internet access while we are gone, but I wanted to wish everyone a happy weekend just in case.

"Suppose that we are wise enough to learn and know - and yet not wise enough to control our learning and knowledge, so that we use it to destroy ourselves? Even if that is so, knowledge remains better than ignorance."
- Isaac Asimov

*waves back* Alas, the other side - in the Blue Ridge Mountains right on the line with North Carolina. :( It's just an in-and-out trip this time, but I hope to go north next time - we really must get together soon! *fingers crossed*

Sounds lovely! I'm sure that you'll have a great time. What's your nephew's name again?

Thanks so much! That's Ethan Marshall (sharing a middle name with my husband and late father-in-law). :) Have a great weekend! Love your icon, by the way!
