Of Fallish Things

Is it really the 4th week of classes already?
Yes, a glance at the calendar just confirmed that. My last semester...that blows my little brain. A milestone about to be checked off the life list. It's been a delightful semester so far...the weather has been incredible...only two rainy days that i can remember! :)
I've loved getting more involved with my church out here, MERCYhouse, and experiencing one of the best college towns in North America (http://www.umass.edu/newsoffice/newsreleases/articles/91929.php)! I'm praying about staying out here for the spring semester even though I won't be in school...it will feel incomplete to move home again in December. If anyone has any job prospects for the spring, let me know!!!!
And on another note, it is so refreshing to blog...the punctuation isn't perfect yet my ideas are still conveyed (or so i hope)! :) In the academic world, I've been told I'm a good writer, but that doesn't make the writing process easy for me! Sure, it's gotten a little less painful over the years....but it's still a grueling process to crank out academic papers.
But this is a blog about photography and I will let my shots do the talking...a photograph is worth a thousand words.

This was from a hike i took to Mt. Sugarloaf my first weekend back...it was a magical evening. The distant mountains were draped in haze and hot air balloons could be seen gliding in the distance (though not in this photo!)


The beautiful valley


I just love this photo....




I enjoyed my fist University football game! Yep, it's been four years and I've never gone....:-/

And then there was Kickoff Sunday at MERCYhouse!








Welcome Weekend was fun too!!! So many great people!
