Davy Croquet


Here was my invitation for a croquet party we had on the strip of land beside the house. We played bocce ball as well.

The winner got a one of a kind t-shirt prize with this on it.


Here's a video the night before the wedding of us playing bocce for the first time.

Nathan's Art- Inspiring My Classmates!

Last week I used Nathan's amazing "Methods of Reasoning" to start off my psychology powerpoint assignment with a bang! Our assignment required a research paper and class participation project, and an informative lecture. My subject was art and psychology, so to begin I asked the class what they thought the painting was about. There were lots of different answers- from philosophical to more literal interpretations, such as, "the guy is sneaking out of the house after spending the night with the man's daughter"...to "the man in the window is stealing thoughts from the old guy" ...to say the least it was a really unique opportunity to see how art engages people. You have a gift! And, of course, I bragged quite a bit about you and your pathway to art. It's an incredible story...And, I think I can thank you for my good grade on the project! Geneva

P.S. Matt, I'm counting on you for a good grade and info when I do a report on Russia's business climate. I'd like a first-person account to really cinch my paper!!!

Our Cabin in Maine


Joy manning the front of the canoe. We canoed about 11miles the second day there and made it all the way to Clay's Sister's place on Toddy Pond. Our cabin was on the far side of the lake.
