I hate computers and computers hate me! GOOGLE SKETCHUP

Google Sketch up assignment. Me and computers do not get along... wish we did but we are long time enemies! Anyway this image was created with Google sketch-up. Difficult program to work through and teach yourself. My house has both columns and a pediment style roof.

Hardest project...EVER!!

Using oven mitts to understand how to create lesson plans for children with disabilities, I created something you see in the circus. My elephant is balancing on a ball. when using wire to create a 3-D image the shadow of the image becomes part of the sculpture. This was incredibly difficult. Working with wire is already difficult but without the complete use of my hands it increases the difficulty 100 times...

Modeling Clay Animal

This is the Dutle. It was part duck, dog, and turtle with a pig's curly tail. It has a hard shell like a turtle and a duck's bill but it is part mammal. This creature is carnivorous and eats fish and small rodents. It can roam on land and swim in water. It is from the rural southern marshes of Louisiana. It has rarely ever been seen. It's hard shell helps to protect it from predators like the Louisiana alligator. It lays eggs like the turtle but nurses it's babies like a mammal. The duck's bill helps to catch fish while the teeth help to eat small rodents.

What do I see outside my bedroom window? I see right into the neighbors bedroom window. They line up perfectly. Needless to say... we keep our blinds and curtains closed!
