Summer Staunton Trip
One of my last trips before returning to Martinsville was to my second home, Staunton. I travelled with my teacher BFF, McHenry, and we had a great time while we were gone. We started by leaving on a Tuesday and we headed straight to the Green Valley Book Fair. We spent a pretty long while…

Camp Kekoka Polar Plunge
I went to watch my friend Nichole (whose camp name is Roe) jump into the water for Camp Kekoka’s Polar Plunge last weekend. I grabbed some pretty awesome shots. All in all, it was a great day and I was super happy to be out and about. Donors (like me!) raised over $20,000 to help…

Lunch Break Learnin’
It seems like I learn something every time I’m on the road. This week’s lesson has been to take time to slow down. I can feel the candle burning at both ends, just a little bit. I’m tired. It takes a lot out of me to do all of this travel. While I love it,…
