24 JULY 2004:

I have been home for less than 24 hours and I am about to leave again.  I wanted to drop in and say hello, fix things a little, and leave you with some uncaptioned pictures.  Uncaptioned but "lightly annotated," let's say.

Here's the link.

Be warned: these are huge picture files.  I am not to be held responsible for computer crashes or modem slowness.

And here, my dear, are the annotations:

084-087: The New Valley River Gorge.

090-106: Pittsburgh and the Andy Warhol Museum.

117-132: The miniature train village in Pittsburgh's Carnegie Science Museum.

136-141: More Pittsburgh from the Duquesne Incline.

176-226: Niagra with Mom from the American and Canadian sides.

228-233: Visiting Mom's old work friend, Mary (and her family) in Syracuse.

235-276: The usual New York stuff (mostly Mom's pictures while we were writing/acting at Sarah Lawrence).  Shaina and Mark met us in NYC and all three of us went to the SLC Young Writers' Camp.

287-296: teany, Moby's veagan restaurant in NYC.  Mom and I ate dinner here, and I got a souvenir teapot.

219-342: More NYC.

I have loads more (especially of the Warhol) on film that I haven't yet developed, which includes all the lovely people I met (Xan, Meagan, Mackenzie, Gabe, Adam, Kat, Stacy, Maggie, Michael, Sarah -- thanks so much for a beautiful summer), and all of my experiences at Hollinsummer in videoproduction and psychology (a.k.a. guuurrrrrll camp).  However, the last few "IMG" jpgs are of my Hollins videoproduction class -- Stacy, me, and Maggie.

Here's some of what you missed at Hollins, via email correspondence with my parents.

And now that you've been somewhat sufficiently updated, I must catch a flight to Chicago to see my lovely Caitlin for a week.  When I get home the next time, it will be for real.

I have so much to say and so little time to say it.  Hopefully this is enough to keep you occupied until I return home.
