MTY MEX

I got this from Bruce Davey, a scrapper from Bryan, Texas. Must be Monterrey, Mexico. Si?

Old Virginia (Salem, Va.)

Bricks from Virginia are hard to find. This is my first. A geology professor from southwest Virginia brought this to the swap. Incidentally, I went to the University of Virginia where there are many unmarked bricks.

Stacy, my Russian teacher for the last three years

Stacy (Anastacia Siderova) was my Russian teacher for the last three years.Here she is at the end of a lesson holding a textbook from the 70's. Also visible is a verb book and another textbook with its cover torn off (Kristina).

It is difficult to sum up three years in a single paragraph, but let me give it a shot. Whenever I think of Stacy, my first thought is always how grateful I am. Every lesson was wonderfully planned out and every moment so interesting. She has deeply influenced me and always brought out the best in me.

Stacy at Aglamieses

Here is Stacy looking her best at one of my very favorite places, Aglamieses in Cincinnati. There are so many candies to chose from in the background. I have borrowed the tile pattern on the floor several times.

Becky and Kristina

A beautiful woman with an appetite for candy, my beloved wife Becky, with Kristina that same day at Aglamieses.

Mr. Aglamieses himself

This is another proud moment for me: Kristina with the owner of my favorite business in Cincinnati.
