​Apologetics in Oxford Journal - A Preface

I am going to Europe again, and as I have before, I am journaling my travels. What I have not done before is to post these pages on the internet, but that is perhaps in part due to the fact that originally my travel journals were written by my twenty-something year old self in the late nineties, and certain blogging technologies were not what they are today. Also, my first trips to Italy, England, France, and Spain were in the context of art history tours for credit through Hardin Simmons, and so it stands to reason that the journals taken down during that time had a similar function to this one, namely of being part of an assignment. This does not diminish the value of the work in any way, rather it facilitates it, as I seriously doubt I would have taken the time to write this at all otherwise.

This book has come home. I purchased it in the street fair the last day of my last trip in Oxford in July, 2013. My plan is to scan and upload these tiny pages, hopefully my scribbles are legible enough by the magical boxes we call computers, that I will not be forced to transcribe by retyping it, but either way, I prefer to keep the book in my pocket and the pen handy. I have my clipboard for lecture notes, and my phone for photos, so with these four tools I should be set to record this adventure into apologetics on this, what will be my third trip to my favorite city in the world (having beaten out Barcelona by some measure) – Oxford, England.
 
(Author’s Note: I was able to scan and convert the handwritten entries without retyping – a digital Warnie if you will - but have edited for spelling, paragraph breaks, and other transcription errors where needed after the fact. I’m embedding various images and drawings as I see fit into these posts, and may attach the full image version of my handwritten entries as a PDF download eventually if I have time someday.)​
