Family and Friends

Here are some photos of my family and friends; you can also peruse a few vacation photos taken in Cape Cod in previous years. I also have some photos of my friend Amber and her husband Greg's wedding, photos of fall on the Konza Prairie, and some pictures of my friends from Bennington. And Graduation Pictures from Bennington are also available.

New! Because Sheila said, "You don't have any recent photos of yourself on your site," here's a photo of Sheila and I at India Palace, our favorite Indian restaurant.

Photos from my visit to Laurie Z. with Rebecca B.!

Note: I've redesigned this page so that you don't have to grow old waiting for all the pictures to download. Just click the thumbnail image to see it full-sized in all its glory!

Sheila:
On the phone and taking a walk.

Nikki:
Sarah and Nikki hanging out on the futon.

Kevin (my nephew):
(from left) Kevin imitates a polar bear; Kevin and Sheila meet up with a big scary (but fortunately plant-eating and very, very dead) dinosaur (both at the Natural History Museum at KU); Kevin and Nikki lie on a weird bed in a strange room full of optical illusions at Science City; Sheila and Kevin board the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe Railroad at the Kansas History Museum in Topeka.

Andrea (my sister):
She helped Nikki build an arch, but never lost her grip on her purse!

Dave (my brother-in-law), Lauren (my niece) and Kevin:
The second picture is of Lauren and her new cousin, Tatum.

Mom:
At the Kansas City Museum in front of a stained glass window; at Wellfleet Harbor; walking to the ocean-side beach the day after Hurrican Floyd hit town.

Uncle Allen and Aunt Betty:
Aunt Betty, Uncle Allen, and Mom; Aunt Betty, Uncle Allen, and me. All taken in front of the incredible view from the lawn at Bennington College.

Ginny and Jim:

Uncle Dick and Aunt Lois:

Langston Hughes Award Ceremony:
Sarah and Sheila with our friend Stephanie, celebrating at the award reception; Sarah gives a short reading (don't I look official behind that podium?)

Hairless Cats:
These are my friend Sarah Greenwood's cats; the darker on is Sipporah; the lighter one is Flannery. Yes, they are really funny-looking, but very cute and cuddly in person!
