Thompson Markward Hall Photos

Here are some pictures of Thompson Markward Hall (it's like living in an adult women's dorm, basically). . . .

This is the door leading into the dining hall.

Dining Hall.

Commons area, sitting room.

Library.  The Washington Post is usually on the table in the mornings and year old magazines.

My favorite chair in the library, and a favorite room, because no one is in there.  The shelves are stocked with books that you can borrow.  I got a Stephen King novel, Lisey's Story, off the shelf.  I've never read a Stephen King novel.  I thought, well, I'll give it a try.  I needed something to quiet my mind in the evening.  Well, it didn't quiet my mind.  It was so good that I just flew through it.

Whoopee!  Laundry room, and this is exciting for someone who lugs about 50 - 60 lbs of clothes to the neighborhood laundromat.



Piano and sitting room.
