Itty Bitty #4 hint

Find someone who frequently walks (or for some of us, long ago walked) a child to preschool or Kindergarten enrichment in downtown Jefferson City.  Show them the photo and ask for their help. 

Oh -- and give them the link so they can figure out the next Itty Bitty.

Peeps!

My family will tell you that the one essential item in my Easter candy is a box of Peeps.  Maybe that's why I love Peeps contests like this one

Itty Bitty #3 Revealed

No one came close to getting this one.  It's a pillar from the old Missouri River Bridge, located in Rotary Centennial Park, overlooking the Missouri River at the end of Bolivar Street.  The Jefferson City News-Tribune reported, "The art deco pillars, which were installed in 1934 for $7,000, remain at the site, though the rotating bridge was removed when the current southbound bridge opened in 1955."  This is a great urban pocket park.  Thanks, Rotarians!

NCAA Brackets

In basketball, of course, I'll be cheering for my alma mater (BYU -- see Jimmer, above), their future conference rival (Gonzaga), the school where I teach at night (Missouri), my son Tim's current school (Boston U -- though I'd have to cheer against Kansas the first round anyway, right?), my dad's alma mater (Syracuse), and my uncle's and niece's alma mater (Utah State). 

But the best brackets I've seen aren't based on basketball prowess at all.  They are based on quality of their economics department or the salaries of graduates.  Take a look!

If that doesn't do it for you, send the link to others and ask for their help.
