Today I tried working with f stop and a sprinkler. 3.2 is pretty as is 32 but 14 was kind of ugly so I didn't post it.

Part of our summer is driving from Colorado to Maine and back with my kids. We usually stop at Mammoth Caves and other national parks but this year my daughter is already in Maine working for the summer so it's just me and a 17 year old and a 14 year old. I'm already catching flak from the older one for how boring it is to drive across the country and visit national parks so I thought I'd change it up and make them ride this all day on the third day of the road trip;

A few springtime views of our back yard, 22 years of work are represented. My lovely wife does the pruning and most of the weeding and I built the infrastructure, pavers, patio stones, arbor and all that. It's spring in Denver but too early for the masses of blooms that are coming!

[Edit] Canon 16-35mm f/2.8 L so the yard isn't actually that big, it's the lens.

#Photography #Spring #BackYard

A grape arbor is shown in the corner of the back of a house, paving stones cover the ground and red chai cushions appear ready to accept guests butts
A garden is shown abutting a lawn, it's spring but not yet flowering and the garden is in shade

My daughter brought home her stuff from college, yes, that's her being eaten by seagulls and the texture is sewn on beads. It's 5 feet tall, where can I possibly hang it

A poem written by my daughter is shown, it's kind of long to type out

Talked with leadership about the protests in Colorado today, nobody said; "the arrests on Friday were a mistake" but they did say; "they immediately returned and are still there"..

The problems that will generate a response is the disruption of learning or teaching and the obvious stuff like violence or hate speach, not officially but those are the rules that were quoted. They also card locked the buildings so that students could access and use the toilet but non students can't, that's to keep the protest a student protest apparently and perhaps reduce the encampment impact.

My campus is across town and I mentioned that the armored response did nothing to keep things calm and head nods all around. We read my email to the chief and his response into the record as well. All in all I think that leadership learned quickly from Friday and is acting fairly and appropriately at this point.
