Spencer House


Here are some photos of Spencer House in Oxford, which houses students from Columbus State University.  By next week we will have 5 CSU students living in the house.  They will be studying at Regent's Park College in Oxford.  We will also have 2 Regent's Park students -- one from Canada; the other from Scotland.  So, the house will have 7 students and me!

Oxford Omnibus Preview

In a few days I'll begin posting messages here about my sojourn in enchanting Oxford, England.  I'll try to give my readers a feel, taste and sniff of life in one of the most quaint and charming university towns in the entire world.  Hopefully, I'll be able to show you photos of interesting sites and tell you stories of local Oxford customs, characters and landmarks.  I'm also going to try my hand at some English cooking (I adore the Two Fat Ladies and Jamie Oliver); if I cook something good, I'll share the recipe.

So come back to this site after January 8, and hopefully you'll find my first post from jolly olde Oxford.

Cheerio...
