Time to share a few images from film class now that I have a bit more free time to scan them in. This one was taken at a hat store (yes, Madison still has one) on State Street, "that great street" that runs between the the capital building and campus. Don Draper would love this place...

finally, spring

Finals were this week. I just have to go back Tuesday for one portfolio review and then I can take a breathe before checking the calendar to see when summer classes start. Yesterday, I went into the sculpture studio to do my share of the cleaning and to bring home a few projects that required a husband and a truck.

Before returning home (and with the back of the truck full of bamboo), we made a not-so-quick stop at the UW Arboretum. And although, I'm many months behind in sharing photos, I felt some peer pressured into posting these right away because we ran into a friend there who already has hers posted on facebook. I'm weak like that.

And a sucker for magnolias in bloom.

It had been sprinkling on and off that morning so the skies were just about perfect. The prom goers were a nice, added surprise to our walk.

Now back to finishing one final painting before Tuesday...

I hope everyone has an absolutely beautiful Mother's Day and is finally seeing some signs of spring!

adventure!
