Athens, Georgia is wonderful little college town. It’s summer time so downtown is a little more laid back than usual. We walked around enjoyed coffee…..ice-cream…..and here are a few of the sights we saw on this beautiful night.

First sight we saw after parking the car….the sky was a real eye catcher that night….

same building as above….different angle and a little later in the evening….

Football is a big thing in Athens….all around Athens are BullDawg statues like this one…..each statue is decorated up with the sponsor’s theme or logo….

All these photos were taken in a single night……

Started a new series of photos called “Living with Teens”. As parents we all tend to think our kids are the best….and we are no exception. Our kids are hard working….do well in school…and most importantly they still like to hang out with us….the parents.

This first picture is of our son….he is a freshman in college and is studying mechanical engineering. His classes are crazy hard and he spends hours studying….and yes he is still living at home. We are fortunate enough to live near a major university and his goal is to get out debt free.

So here he is…. hours after his last exam for the semester…..he promises after sufficient time of chilling out he will clean his room….we shall see. By the way….the computer pictured here….he and his sister built it. Ok…I know that was a parent brag there….sorry….but my kids never cease to amaze me.

Next is our daughter…and yes she is stressing. Not only does she have regular exams to take but 4 AP test…..she is a real go getter and wants to study Physics in college….few more days sweetie so hang in there.

Not sure what pictures are ahead for this series….but ready and excited to see what happens.

Today we went to the Human Rights Festival in Athens, Georgia….while there we saw two unique autos.

The first one was an old truck completely covered in Bottle Caps…

The second car was a hatch back cover with….well…I really don’t know what the theme was except a mixture of images…..frogs…horseshoes….devils…

bats……

Angels and Saints…….

Must confess the frog and bat are my favorite…..but the spirit of these artists really captured my attention and imagination….they acted with full courage to bring their vision to the public and the tenacity to make their visions came to reality.

There is definitely a lesson in there for me….

Pathways……

So for the last 7 months I have been adjusting to a new job….

To help adjust to this new step in life….I try to walk during my lunch hour….and occasionally…. I have the camera in tow…

So on this day I focused on walking paths….I figured a change in my life’s path deserved to be reflected on camera…

This first picture is of a foot crossing over the a very busy road….

This second picture…as you can tell is of a set of super steep steps….

This last picture is of an iron gate that leads out from an old garden complete with a fountain..
