sanctum sanctorum

Granddad Short has a relatively new home office, which I have dubbed (in my head anyway) the sanctum sanctorum (after Jefferson's private suite of rooms at Monticello, which was dubbed sanctum sanctorum by a visitor). Even Grandmother Short does not feel comfortable inhabiting the workspace. However, an indulgent Granddad permits and I think even enjoys the invasion by Mr. McShortie. You have to wonder which poor student's dissertation manuscript now has track marks on it. I shudder to think if it was Granddad's new book that is now out of order!
Lest you think that all affection is showered upon Mr., there is definite mutual admiration (and amusement) between granddaughter and grandfather as well!

Great pictures as always. I love looking at them, these will be so much fun to look at in years to come. Keep up the good kid raising, Mama. (Seems funny, me calling you Mama, almost typed your name)
