Just a couple of pictures from the area around here. The river scene is the south fork of the Shenandoah River between Luray and Stanley just east of Route 340. The road scene is the very top of Route 220 as it crosses under the Skyline Drive in the Blue Ridge Mountains, looking east towards Sperryville.
I haven't done much with the camera lately. Last Thursday and Friday I was in Charleston, WV for a two day seminar that covered two classes in my Master's program. It was pretty intense, in depth, exciting, and very enlightening for me. Now I have to read 3 books and write a major paper for each class. Seems like a lot of work, but it will earn me 6 semester hours. An expensive way to get a degree, but a quick one if you can read and retain in a hurry.
I finished my Entry Management Training Program at work and await my grade or pass/fail, which ever it is. Not sure how that works. I continue to learn every day I work, and that makes the job fun. Crazy hours, but after 35 years of 8-5 basically I guess I can't complain. It certainly is more interesting work than I did the last 20 years, harder and pays less, but more interesting.
Thanks for checking in. Be sure to check Jill's blog. We anxiously await word on our African addition. Cheers.
