School is Out! and other miscellany

Yay, I'm free! :)  2 classes down, 35 to go... the lovely thing about going back to school after a 12 yr hiatus is that they scrap your old GPA and you get to start again...as of this moment, I have a 4.0 :) - A in art history 101 and A+ in metalsmithing & jewelry design.  Below is a photo of my final project, a spoon w/ a list of required components & dimensions, and a packet of materials handed out by my instructor w/ the stipulation that there be no left overs! :(  The biggest challenge was coming up with a design that didn't look like it should have been edited, but I like the zen feel of it.  I'll post photos of the lite-brite ring when I get it back from my prof...

With classes over, I had last Sunday afternoon free, so my friend Bethany & I walked the Canal downtown - this is one of my favorite places in Indy...
