About Me

My photo
I am usually typing on a computer most of the day, but today I am trying my hand at a new project: My 2011 365-Day Photo Journey. I gained a love for photography when I was required to take a fine arts class for college--I chose photography. The course required a lot of work--Professor Loehr saw to that--but it opened my eyes to a new world. It's been many years since I took that class and I don't know how much I actually remember, but following Laura Delagal's 365 Photo Journey and watching my niece's love for taking pictures has peeked my interested in photography again. Although I don't have a professional camera, I did receive a really nice Sony digital (point-and-shoot) camera from my sweetie for Christmas this year. Going through some difficult times in my life, I thought that undertaking my own 365-day photo journey might be a way to relieve a little stress and have some fun with my new toy. Through this journey I will capture some of life's joy and its pain, but I will also be able to refocus the lens of my life on the many wonderful things that God has created. Well, here goes. Wish me luck!

Day 217 - August 5, 2011

Duh?  A turtle
I was probably the last person to leave the campus on Friday, but I wanted to be sure to leave things in good shape so that I knew where to pick up on Monday.  When I went to get into the car I noticed a turtle walking underneath my car and the little brown-shelled thing stopped right behind my right front tired.  Well, I could not pull out and back over the the turtle.  I couldn't bare to hear that crunch.  So, I reached into the car and grabbed my umbrella.  With the tip end I scooted the turtle out of the way just far enough that I could back out.  When I passed by, the turtle was heading back into the bushes.

You just never know what your going to find on SHC's campus.  lol (cats, racoons, roosters, turtles)
