Day 205: Lines and More Lines

Remember that one time it became August and I had to relearn how to multi-task?

Sheesh! 'Tis the season of school, which means that unless it's grading, I'm woefully behind. Such is the case here. But don't lose faith, my friends. I have a bunch of pictures waiting in the queue, and just need the time to upload them. I hope to get a few up tonight, in fact. Hang with me, peeps!

Thanks for your support!

I took this at sunset in Stapleton right out front of my friend's house... It reminds me of something out of a kids' movie.

Day 198: Clouds at Sunset

I just got back from the Midwest, where they have the most spectacularly beautiful and colorful sunsets, which we generally don't get in Colorado Springs.
