GIANT film!

This was the outdoor film projector (portable) that the Wex rented!  Its really super cool.  Do you see the huge reels in the back?  Black and white FILM (not video!!)- The Wolfman w/Lon Chaney Jr.

Many groups of teens today...

This was a writing intensive for teens from all over the country through Denison University.  32 kids!  It was a class taught by Julian Lee our favorite graphic novel artist educator.  It went so well and I hope we can do it again next year!

Hard Working Kids

They could literally sit in silence all day long and draw.  I remember that.

I love my kids

This is the group I worked with today- all talented young videographers who received commissions through a state-wide competition to create PSA's about prescription drug abuse.  This was the "rapper" pose.  We did a "goofy" pose, an "uptight contemporary artist" pose and a "normal" one, too.  Left to right: Truman, Emily, Prentiss, Mark and Ashley.

eating the immediate

Our household just got its first CSA share.  Lots of lettuces and radishes and the sweetest little parsnips I have ever tasted in my life.  I LOVE RAW FRESH UNSHIPPED LOCALLY GROWN VEGETABLES THAT WERE PICKED ONLY HOURS AGO.
