summer wind down...

















I t was great to see so many faces at orientation last night. If you missed me, I was helping with the Camp Fairview sign-up in the gym...so many lucky students will be staying at Fairview a little longer than the rest.
Speaking of camping, I'm just back from a great trip to one of my favorite places in the world YELLOWSTONE! My family enjoyed a two week camping trip through the Beartooth Highway, Yellowstone and Grand Teton National parks. Of course my trips always have and artsy edge to them... we took a lot of photographs at sunrise and sunset...stopped to sketch and draw a bit. We visited both of the new park visitors centers, the Buffalo Bill Historical Center and my personal favorite the National Museum of Wildlife Art. I would love to take my Fairview Family to Yellowstone someday...perhaps you can click on my links to visit the parks and museums virtually.
The art room looks as if the grizzlies had a big party: they ripped the carpet out and added a few new tables-grizzlies need room to create! I think you will all enjoy the added work space and the new ELMO projector that we can all enjoy right from the tables!
