Summer!

Butterfly from Pavilion of Wings at the Natural History Museum in L.A. One of many beautiful pictures that I'll post on my photo blog soon =)

Summer is wonderful for many reasons:

* its warmer on morning runs
* poolside sunbathing
* swimming
* summer school - teaching math and art =)
* the sun - I love it!

Enjoy the longer days, the cool nights and soak it up ;-)

My Other Half

I thought I had failed miserably but I guess I haven't really. Rather than a photo a day, it seems I've accomplished about a few photos a month. Amidst all the student teaching I DID have a life!

Since 3am is fast approaching, I want to shamelessly direct you to my life, captured within a few frames.

Did I ever tell you? I once aspired and came *this* close to becoming a flight attendant with Alaska Airlines. Here's proof:

Ladies and gentlemen, if you look to your right you will see below the "For Inspiration" section, a link to my other half: This Year I... Very good. Now, please click on that link and be sure to enjoy the ride.

If you were too lazy to follow those directions, click the picture then.

Virginia to DC

I met these three friends in Japan, only to see them a few years later, for just a few days on the east coast. Emily, Anne and Alison were awesome hosts - I loved being with them =) Its always good to reminisce about Okayama, but it was about time to add some new adventures and photos to our collection.
