School is going pretty good. My classmates and I are having some frustration with the internet portion of the class, but that'll iron itself out over time I think. For now though I have my first draft due tomorrow for my first full essay. The topic is our experience with the education system and our thoughts on it and also our experience with reading.

The essay will be 750-1000 words. My draft is mostly done and we'll see how the editing process goes.
Otherwise, work is.....well it's work! It has it's ups and downs and extreme challenges, but it pays the bills and keeps food in my kittie's tummys, and mine too.

Haven't been hiking lately but I've kept my shutter finger busy. Yesterday I bought a new monopod and today I got the battery grip for my camera that I ordered last week. My next photographic purchase will be a while as my next item will cost me a few dollars, a 70-200mm f2.8 IS lens. Basically all of that means that it's cost me about $2,000, yikes!!!!!!! I'll stow some cash aside for it while I build my savings.

So that's life lately. I hope that you enjoy the photos!!! :-)
