An outtake from a shoot for the FC mag last week in Erie, Colorado. Funnily enough, it’s probably my favorite image from the afternoon. There’s another one I’d like to post once the mag is in peoples mailboxes.
Teaching is still going swimmingly…totally endeared to my students, love having a captive audience (no one’s really surprised by that) and I get paid to encourage creativity in photography and art. Dare I say it, I wouldn’t mind teaching more than 2 days a week! (Maybe 3 would be just right.)
In my spare time I’ve been devouring novels written mostly before the 1950s. Favorites so far are The Wonderful Year (copyright 1946), Dear Enemy (1915) and Bright Island (1964…a bit later but just as dear). There’s something surprisingly profound in each of these, and I MAY have laughed and cried. Also, it’s soup weather and I’m trying a new recipe this week. The weather is unpredictable (60’s today, forecast of snow tomorrow) and I love it. And we (cousins and I) have started watching the National Parks Ken Burns documentary on PBS and it’s so good but bad because I already want to visit all the national parks and it’s only making it worse. Every few months, the travel bug bites me hard so who knows where I’ll go next (I have good friends in Switzerland and Turkey right now!)

Have you read Alas, Babylon? It was written in ‘59 and was quite a read. You might enjoy it.

Steven and I watched those too! Well, I watched one, and he watched the rest. They are long! I just don’t have time for anything else but school these days. 7 more weeks….
