About

Camera in Hand. At the Irondale Cafe, outside Birmingham, AL.

I am a a thirty-something year-old who grew up a Yankee in a place I like to call ‘The Fort’ and moved to the South MANY years ago for college… and I stayed. I have a number of degrees and work at my alma mater ‘ The College.’ I have a strong love for my old home and my adopted one and will chronicle a lot of the difference I have noticed over the years here. I will also probably talk about my crazy, dysfunctional, and wonderful family as well as my amazing friends who are my other family. There will be items about my travels, different recipes I am trying, and everything in between. In short, these are just scenes from my life.
