Kathy Reichs Presentation
MTSU has a great forensic anthropology program and they host different names in the science at a symposium. We went to see Dr. Kathy Reichs who is the forensic anthropologist behind the TV show Bones. The presentation was very good. It was a light introduction to forensic anthropology, some real world cases Dr. Reichs has worked on along with some discussion of how those ideas get translated to fiction and television.
Moving Into College!
Look at all the nature
We have a new nesting pair of doves every year near our house and in our backyard.
They are very sweet birds.
I have been extremely remiss in my blogging duties over the past several months. But my class at Columbia State has ended and I now have a very small smidgen of free time that I didn't have before. I have a whole folder of photos to put up here and I'm going to try to do it in categories. :-) This is the nature category...
I got a great gift card for garden stuff at the Hosker family Christmas and this very cool bird feeder is one of the things I picked out. I also got some more tubtrugs to use for household stuff. They are very handy and I highly recommend them. For my birthday, I got another gift card from amazon from my mom and Don. I picked up a little garden cart that holds tools and plants. Richard calls it my radio flyer wagon with a degree in landscape design. I also got a VERY NICE set of gardening shears. Many lectures about not leaving them outside, cleaning them properly, etc have ensued. For some reason, the garden shears make me want to watch the Godfather.

Granny Choate, Margaret Hodgin.
Granny Choate, Margaret Hodgin.
Just wanting to wish all of the mothers out there a happy day. Thanks for all you do to cook and clean and make the world a better place. No one would wear clean underwear or get haircuts without your influence!

Some water photos
Here are some photos from our house during the monsoon. We are much luckier than most people. No damage so far, just some damp areas in the garage and crawlspace. I am pretty sure we are flooded in since the main roads all have creeks next to them. We don't have any large build ups of water anywhere near the house, though.
