PROMOTING A DAUGHTER'S BLOG . . . I've mentioned my oldest daughter Lydia many times on this weblog. For example, at 16 years old in 2005, she was the voice of Litigation Radio #1. In 2007, I took a photo of her having her first legal drink with me in Mexico City.
Lydia's now at the University of Minnesota and spent the semester in France. This summer she's traveling around Europe with her boyfriend Josh. She's started a blog to keep in touch with her family and friends: European Explorations.
What better place to promote Lydia's blog than here on Legal Underground? Some of her recent posts: "Paris Take 4," "It's Like Mexico, But You Can Drink the Water," and "The End of Madrid."
I'm enjoying it. Maybe you will too.
