Yoda! Recliners!

Tim A. Cummins @ 8:11 pm  

I enjoyed watching part of the Empire Strikes Back last night. I’m a huge Yoda fan. That’s where he makes his first appearance. Jim Henson ran him as a puppet. Now he’s done with CG. These are some of my favorite shots.

At the original quality setting on the picture you can actually see each bird quite clearly. 228 to be exact.

Admin. Walkin.

Tim A. Cummins @ 6:57 pm  

Took care of some paperwork this morning.

Got a confirmation that the health insurance plan that I had changed for the kids was correct. Great to get things done.

Enjoyed a peaceful day off.

Had a lovely walk this evening.

Colors were beautiful.

I was interested in how the eye interprets a picture when you have power lines in the foreground, a tree and then the moon in the background. You got a real sense of depth in the picture.

Interesting effect.

Lots of beauty around me!

Great day!

Rob! Azalea!

Tim A. Cummins @ 8:35 pm  

Had a fun today with one of my favorite partners: Rob Martin of Mobilizing Students!
r
Rob brought hundreds of kids to work with us this year! Looking forward to many more in the future!

In fact, we’re preparing for Urban Plunge where we’ll have over 270 students in mid June. Could be as many as 500!

So today we went by a few churches to see where we could house part of the group as well as talking about how portable showers might work.

Went by the Corners apartments to sign the new lease. Wasn’t ready, so I’ll have to go by next week. Typical.

Then over to Azalea to work with the kids! Always fun!

At home working on Admin duties! Taking care of some business related to our health insurance. Sure is a time consuming process!

Are you smarter than a fourth grader?

I took some pictures of the kids jumping up and down. I’d show them one picture and then the other back and forth. They looked like they were jumping.

Azalea!

Tim A. Cummins @ 8:40 pm  

Worked on finances this morning. Always something!

Talked to a representative at Blue Cross Blue Shield about changing our health insurance. We’ve had a family plan, we’re going to split off Ashley (because she’s getting married!) and Jesse onto separate plans.

Turns out we’ll save about $200 a month by doing that. Sounds like a plan!

Jesse and I went to Azalea to work with the kids.

Pretty cold when we go there, but it’s amazing how fast the room warms up. Lots of little warm bodies!

Shahdin showed me his new car. Nice!

Admin duties now!

Beautiful sunset!
