Niagara Falls

Wow - has it ever changed.  Not the falls, but the area around.  We used to go every year for a race held on the US side.  The Canadian side has really grown - too much.   But it was neat to walk around and hear the multiple languages being spoken.

Updated Web Site

For my of my final  assignment for the Advanced Web Design class at the College of Creative Studies - I put out a revised version of my web site.

While it may not look significantly different - I used many of the techniques I learned in the class.

Will Deliver As Advertised

Just came home from the wedding shower of my niece Gina.  As usual for me - one of the gifts was an IOU.    So she received a picture of the shawl I am weaving.    It is half done - I have until October so I should have no problem finishing.

Ultimate Good TIme

"This is the ultimate good time - sitting at a loom weaving".

"This is the most fun thing in the world."

The above are quotes from one of the kids participating in the Discovery Camp at Greenfield Village last week.

Sample from the Discovery Camp

I started volunteering at the weaving shoppe at the village this summer.  The last couple weeks there has been various ages of kids taking part in the day camp held at The Henry Ford.  The seventh graders  - as one of their choices of activities - have the option of weaving.  We have them weave narrow rag rugs.    It is exciting to see the enthusiasm of these kids as they explore new/old activities.
