Drinking and Art

When I first went to the University of Iowa after transferring from Saint Louis University, I met a Colombian man named Miguel.

Every week we would have a language exchange.  One week in Spanish, the next in English.  We met at the Iowa Memorial Union.  One time, there was an art exhibit.  I like art, but at the time, the free wine was a lot more appealing.

I would take a sip, then pretend that I liked and was interested with the artist's statement.   

I had some great conversations with Miguel.  Looking back at the friendships I have had over the years, I realize that I am very blessed.  Thanks everyone!
