workout / worked out
L- Nikon / T - Nikon
I started boot camp today - early - 8am on a Saturday morning. A lady at work roped 3 of us into signing up with her for a 6 weeks boot camp. It was held outside, down by the river. The air was cool this morning and the mist rose off the water as the rowers passed by. But I was soon shedding my outer layer of clothing because of the hard workout. It was pretty brutal - full hour without stopping. But it feels good to be sore and tired and I assume I will improve my performance as time goes on. / i'm really into this book sculpture thing, so i was really excited when i got to try my luck at it again on part three of our 3D design texture project. we were supposed to draw or paint a visual texture, so while i was playing around with my book and doing what we used to do in middle school (flipping up the pages to make a flower-type thing) i had a revelation. bamboo! it worked out pretty well (except the "bamboo" got a little squished as i added more and more "stalks") and i got a good critique on it in class. our next project is body modification... wish me luck! haha

both of you are working it out - stretching and reaching. I like that.
I never grow tired of your marriage of photographs. Beautiful colour.
Body modification. Now that should be interesting.

i worked out today for the first time in five months! let's spur each other on, Leslye!
Taylor, your class seems so interesting! i'd love to take one like it if we had assignments like you get! keep the updates coming! i love them.
I so enjoy coming here. Great blog...wonderful witnessing a mother-daughter team.
I should be going to boot camp. It's great that the weather was nice enough to hold the camp outside.
I'm slow on the draw - did your daughter slip bamboo in between the folded book pages? What is the body modification thing? Thirdly, momma, do you have a fine arts degree (I'm assuming that is what she is working on)?
Have a nice evening!
This is so nice! Bamboo is one of my favorite things to decorate with and to eat:) I love the green against the green...gorgeous.
Leslye - I love how active you are and how many wonderful things you involve yourself in?
Taylor - Can't wait to hear about your next project.
