Welcome to the New Day Cafe! This is an open thread.

National Geographic had a recent story on the Vindolanda tablets, tablets that told of the daily lives of Roman soldiers in what is now the UK.

x Written on wood, the Vindolanda tablets offer a trove of information on the ordinary, even mundane moments in the lives of the Romans who once lived on this frontier base

Grab a cup of coffee and share what’s on your mind this morning.
