The Other - exhibition at the Universities of Shady Grove

Thanks to Nickolas Falk, Irene Munster, and Elysa Fisher of the Universities at Shady Grove for organizing an exhibition of my work "The Other" on the theme of diversity in the university's Priddy Library. 

I also held two workshops for students and staff.

This seems right to me.

Brian Wilson

I spent most of today photographing Brian Wilson, the musician formerly associated with the Beach Boys. He was appearing in the Washington DC area to lend his support for Change Direction and Give An Hour, programs that promote mental health services and education.

Thanks to Kristen Lee, Dr. Barbara Van Dahlen, Sally Charney, and all the staff of Give an Hour for the opportunity to serve.

And thank you to Brian Wilson and his kind and brave wife, Melinda.

Brian's music is deeply beautiful.

So is he.

Summer vacation / Warwick New York, and the road home.

Gentle road adventures.

After a day driving, Ruth and I stopped in the pretty town of Warwick, New York. We stayed at the Sleepy Valley Inn.

B&B's. Yes.

A sweet and fitting way station to begin the last leg of our journey home.

Summer vacation / Lake Willoughby Vermont July 19, 2015

Lake Willoughby, Vermont.

We accompanied and supported the Dentel/Post family as they mixed Steve's and his mother Marcene's ashes in ground next to Keith Dentel, Steve's father, on a beautiful plot overlooking the lake.

The sun shone a bit, and there was a very slight breeze.

And we continued on. Life.

Here's' to Steve.

To all of us.
