Wonderful cedar tree trunks; the trunks are actually quite hairy.

The Tougaloo Campus is five hundred acres. The college began in 1869.

This is very weird, I’ve been talking on the phone only this morning about how some tree trunks have the same look as a muscular male body.
Am I the only one who sees this, or am I becoming a sad older woman (very big grin).

Sally, I think is is in a woman’s genetic material. Never mind the getting older; we don’t just look, we actually see. thelma

Oh, Thelma. I miss those trees. They were such a welcome sight each day. I am remembering their solidity and movement and power (very much like a human form Sally) in the new work I’m making. Thanks for posting them. I’m glad you are thinking of them too.

Oh, Sonji, I miss the trees, the campus, you, Gwen, Napoleon, Mario, Geoff, Rhonda, and the whole class.

I’m looking into sweet talking the local community college into giving an old woman a break on the tuition and allowing me to pay the auditing fee on a print making class.

There is no way that will replace the synergy of Tougaloo. At least it is a start.

I also heard a woman, last night, with an irish drum, bodhran. The way she handled it she got a lot of different tones out of it. I think I am going to talk to the percussion instructor, too.

If I’m going to go broke on fuel I ought to get a full day’s instruction for every trip into town.
