No Schedule

Scooter in the Sticks — Sun, 02 Oct 2016 04:05:00 +0000

Simplicity This past Friday at 5pm my intent to retire from Penn State became irrevocable. At the end of June I’ll step on to a path for the next adventure. One of the siren songs of this new life is possibility of having no schedule to live by. I can’t comprehend what that might be […]

Photography Project

The Big Empty

Scooter in the Sticks — Tue, 29 Dec 2009 14:19:00 +0000

Living in a college town means that several times a year one gets to experience the Big Empty. The ghost time feeling left in the wake of the departure of 40,000 souls.
