This is a little Eiffel tower (obviously) on a bookshelf in my office. This was actually brought in as a "show and tell" for extra credit and the student never took it home.
Notice the picture to the left? That's Chenonceau, a castle in France, and that's me sitting on a ledge. I was 21 at the time. The picture to the right is of a group of my students on one of our trips to France.

Winder Sunrise Day 9 1/14
It's sometimes hard to get a clear day around here and the sunrise was really beautiful.
Oak Rest Pet Gardens - Day 8 1/13
This is a pet cemetery that I pass on the way to work every morning.
A sign of the times - 2: Day 7 1/12
This is a neighborhood that was cut in, paved, and now abandoned. Barrow County where I work is one of the fastest growing counties in Georgia and in the nation (percentage growth) yet the economy has obviously hit it hard like it has everywhere else. Another view of the same neighborhood.

Cows on the way to work: Day 6 1/11/09
I pass this pasture every day on my way to work. Today there were a tone of cows out there as compared to last week. I was going to get a shot then, but there were only two outside as I drove by. It's funny sometimes how they will all be facing the same direction. That wasn't the case the morning I took this so I may have to try for that shot on another day.
Maya : Day 5 1/10/09
This is one of my two dogs. Maya was a stray who showed up in my neighborhood one day. We already have a 15lb bichon frise, which my boys don't really care for. He (Baxter) is somewhat of a yappy dog and they've been asking for a larger dog for quite a few years that they could really wrap their arms around. Well, along came Maya. My sons took to her immediately and after they fed her (without my permission) of course she stuck around. By the end of the week, we had officially adopted her.
Being the only other girl in the house, she and I are best buds. She's such a sweet dog, unless she viciously barking that is. I can't imagine not having her.
