"My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too. This is my wish."

*my firstborn graduates high school on the 12th . . . it was just yesterday he was my baby.. hold your little ones tight.. time flies too fast!
Shot Info: Canon 400d, ISO 100, 30mm, f8, 1/20th second. Bogen/Manfrotto 3221WN tripod used. 8 shot panorama shot in manual mode.
Processing : The 8 RAW images were edited in Lightroom 2.0 where I added a graduated filter with an exposure setting of -3 to the sky. I then added some fill light to the whole image, boosted the contrast, and set the calibration to Landscape. The images were then stitched together in Arcsoft Panorama Maker 4 Pro. In CS3 I added a levels layer, curves layer for contrast, and hue/saturation to boost colors in the sky. I then cloned out some lens flare in the middle of the pano and also in the bottom right corner. Last step was adding an unsharp mask layer.
This image was taken @ Painted Rock State Forrest in Mid Missouri. This is one of my older images, taken in November of '07. I'm not too fond of how it turned out, but none the less I like it.

Well I still have to wait to get the papers done and the ceremony won't be until October (that's why there are not pictures of me in robes), but I have completed all the courses and projects with great grades, so I'm officialy a Physicist! =D
Unfortunately I still have things to do, as I have to prepare for the master Astrophysics courses. But the amount of free time has increased notoriously so I'll be able to resume my usual posting scheme! Yay! <3

No way! This is Kentucky's first university, where engineers and doctors graduate. Vice Presidents of the United States came from here (although one was arguably the country's worst under President James Buchanan, and the other only a shade better). The President of the Confederacy too.
Before the westerly part of Virginia's far west became the state of Kentucky in 1792, Kentucky was called the colony of Transylvania. Transylvania is latin for "across the woods" — er, Appalachian woods that is. Bram Stoker's book Dracula would not be written for another century.
My oldest son Sam graduated from Purdue this weekend. A proud moment for us all. Here he is in his cap and gown giving his younger brother a pre commencement bear hug. I think we have the Christmas photo taken care of!

This is a landmark nine story building designed by Trowbridge & Livingston for the B. Altman Company in 1906. It was the first department store on 5th Avenue and built in an Italian Renaissance palazzo style. It comprises a complete city block. The architects also built the St. Regis Hotel in 1904, JP Morgan HQ on Wall Street in 1913 and the Hayden Planetarium in 1935.
It's official. The last exam has been written and she has graduated with distinction from high school. I am so proud of my girl. She's worked hard and is getting ready to take on the world. But first, we celebrate
Major decisions by Travis Berridge and Luke Wilson powered the Gold team to a 14-6 victory over the Green squad in Cal Poly wrestling's annual intrasquad meet on a warm and sunny Friday afternoon in the University Union plaza.
Berridge scored a 15-4 major decision over Ryan Anderson at 174 pounds, notching five takedowns, a two-point near fall and a reversal along with riding time.
Wilson wrestling in his first match as a Mustang after battling injuries for three years, earned a 13-5 major decision against Joe Granger at 165 pounds. Wilson, a Righetti High School graduate, recorded four takedowns, a reversal and an escape plus riding time for the win.
Wilson's final takedown with seven seconds left sealed the victory.
Also winning for the Gold team were Ty Schilling at 133 pounds and Glenn Farina at 141.
Trailing 2-0 after two periods, Schilling earned an escape and two takedowns for a 5-3 win over Yoshito Funakoshi while Farina scored two first-period takedowns on his way to an 8-5 triumph over Curtis Booth.
Victories for the Green squad were posted by Joshy Cortez at 149 pounds and Thomas Lane at 184.
Cortez notched an escape to start the second period and rode out Jason DeLaCruz in the final period for riding time and a 2-0 victory while Lane tallied an escape and penalty point in the first period, a takedown in the second period and a pair of escapes in the final period for a 6-5 win over Sohrab Movahedi.
"We thought the guys competed hard today," first-year Mustang head coach Jon Sioredas said of his coaching staff. "It was a great outdoor setup with great weather."

This is Kim! She graduated last weekend with a degree in Biomedical Sciences from Colorado State University. She got Magua Cumlaude, published as an undergrad, founded an honor society, and was in the honors program. She will be attending OT school in Chicago next year, and it will be paid for!
We are expecting a very unwelcome snowstorm, starting this afternoon. I need to get a few more overseas Christmas cards and letters written, so that I can hopefully get out to post them before any snow needs clearing off my car. Will have to finish off my descriptions later. (later, evening, maybe six or so inches of snow so far.)
Luckily, the snow didn't start until I was back home from running an errand or two. I also called in at the home of a man who has been making simple wooden Christmas trees. He has not been able to work (carpentry) after having surgery in September on his shoulder (rotator cuff issue, which I can relate to). So, he decided to make Christmas trees, using Spruce, to sell, for people to decorate in any way they choose. He even made the newspaper and TV, which was great. A lot of people in his community have been buying these trees and placing them outside in their front garden to bring some Christmas cheer to all the neighbours. A few people have come forward to help him with his creations, which was nice to see. A real entrepreneur, especially in a time of his own need, and in a year unlike any other. I have a lot of respect for you, Derek. You have certainly brought your community together and given so much pleasure! Great inspiration.

The first time I ever saw this beautiful old house/barn was on 18 July 2016, when my daughter and I did a very long drive from Calgary to the Drumheller area. Ever since then, I have wanted to go back and see it again, and yesterday, 20 December 2020, I finally found it once again. Earlier this year, I was just a road or two away from it. I had been sure I knew exactly where it stood, but learned that I really didn't. It has been updated to celebrate graduation time for 2020 - a very different kind of year and celebration for so many young people, thanks to the ongoing pandemic that has so far lasted almost a year. Well done, to all students who have been able to continue their education, whether online or in person, or a mix of both. Well done to all the parents out there, who have somehow managed to keep going, despite the enormous challenges of 2020. I don't know how you did it! Good luck in 2021, as the pandemic continues, but now with a lot more hope.
This is what I wrote about this colourful structure when I posted a photo back in 2016:
"As well as birds and beautiful scenery, we saw several old barns, including this old house/barn. Each year, the farmer allows the graduating class from the local high school to decorate this old building in any way they wish. A fun idea and it certainly adds a splash of colour. I was absolutely fascinated to read a little bit of history from someone who was a contact of mine on Flickr two or three years ago. Her Grandmother was apparently born in this house/barn. It was later converted to a granary and now, of course, has become the canvas for local students."
Yesterday, this barn was my main destination, and that is pretty much all I saw. Funny how days can be so different. I can see so many things one day, yet another outing to a different area on a different day results in maybe only a couple of dozen photos. No sign of any Snowy Owls this day.
