First day team projects, trying to figure out what makes a good news photo.

The students return in a day so the ground crews are doing one last cleanup.

I’ve been here for 14 winters and it still surprises me to see things like this.

The Mrs. is launching a new bargain finding project, mannequins, fancy dresses and irons abound.

I wandered over to Birmingham to visit the cousins for a day. Their parents were in from California, try not to pass up a chance to see the distant relatives.

After a wonderful lunch at their home, we headed over to the Sloss Furnace National Historic Landmark which is … awesome and stunning. Awesome in how you can get up close to this century-old structure and stunning in how you’re not required to show a proof of tetanus shot before entering.

Those are retaining walls, one working and one maybe not.

Paired with yesterday’s image, there some sort of a new theme going on with storage.
