Anna and Lucy

Heather, Ryan and Vinny live above Anna and her beautiful kitty Lucy. I love their house and I really love Grosse Pointe Park, it has some really cute neighborhoods.

Summer school

I am making a concerted effort to take more pictures this summer. Starting with a few of my favorite classmates from my first summer class. Dave and Nicole are two of my favorite people at Eastern and I met them both in the Fall in our Women's History class. I really like this class so far and it seems to be going incredibly fast. I just hope I find some inspiration to write my final paper...hmm I will keep thinking.

Friday in BGKY

Frank and I drove down for a quick trip to Bowling Green May 15-17. Friday night we met Meg for dinner at El Mazatlan, where Meg and I shared a pitcher of Margaritas and lots of laughs. We discussed the concept of a reality TV show called Real Big Love which involved Meg and I both marrying Frank for insurance purposes making Meg and I sisterwives. Matt joined us briefly before heading back to the lab for the entire weekend to finish the EOY slideshow. After dinner we visited Sara at Spencer's which was crazy busy and fun.

Vinny!

Heather and her boyfriend Ryan got the cutest puppy on the face of the earth!! I went to visit with Heather and Vinny and we took him down to the park to play around. It was beautiful out, which made up for the snow that we had earlier in the week. Vinny is an eleven week old Jack Russel Terrier mixed with Bichon Frise, and he has quite the personality already!

Appalachian Cultural Project

I had an awesome time in Whitesburg, I really enjoyed seeing everyone from Western, and I enjoyed being immersed in photo talk for an entire week. Here are some of my favorite images from the week. Be sure to check the website www.acpworkshop.org for what went on during the workshop, archives of previous workshops and for updates as the multimedia and picture stories are added.

Warrior women

Here's a little collage of the cast of the 2009 Vagina Monologues at EMU. The performances are this weekend and I am really excited!
