2017 continued..

2017 was an amazing time because I was able to grow as a teacher.  I spent a lot of my time focusing on my students and let my photography be set aside.  Therefore I have a gap from February to May with my creative photography work.

Thanks to Facebook's timehop I kept being reminded of my pixie cut before my husband and I started dating.  From the beginning of our relationship I wanted to see how long I could get my hair to grow.  I did pretty well getting to be past my shoulders and near my shoulder blades.  However, I have thick and curly hair, and well I am a woman of fairly low maintenance.  It seemed the longer my hair got, the more I hated having to wash my hair.  Then came the timehop pixie shots, and I got the itch.  Friends and family encouraged the change so on a Friday after school I made the appointment and said "chop it off".  My students had a range of reactions.  Some said nothing, some said they liked it, and others didn't know what to say.  I'm glad I made the change, because it's easy, and it's just hair, it will grow back!

It seems that 2017 was the Year of Trips to Vermont!  This time I went in the summer with the same friend from the first trip.  We decided to go camping and explore the Quechee.  We walked around the gorge and found cute cemeteries and breweries.  Again, I had a wonderful time and enjoyed the time away.
