Absence...

This is just a quick note to let everyone know that some new posts are coming to this blog very soon. Seriously. I mean it. I know it's been kinda empty lately, but I've actually been busy! I skipped work last Thursday and Friday and hung out on the campus of Utah State University in Logan, attending multiple events at a symposium on the Beat Generation. I have a ton of notes to go through so I can write up a post about the experience, and I also have a bunch of photos to edit and post on Flickr.

Then, after work on Saturday, Lisa and Tenzin and I drove out in the country around Richmond to take some pictures: Lisa had her fancy-awesome Canon camcorder, and I had my trusty Kodak C330. We took multiple shots of the same subjects, in part to learn about the capabilities of each camera, and to also compare our picture-taking styles. She recently opened a Pro Flickr account, and has been uploading scads of photos. You can check it out here. She tends to post solid, straightforward documentation of friends, family, and place while I seem to keep posting the indulgent artsy-fartsy shots.

So, please come back over the next couple of days. There will be some new content (spellbinding as always, of course) and I hope you help to make it better by leaving a comment. You can also post comments on individual photos on Flickr, so drop us a line.

Thanks for stopping by,
Shawn
