This has been great training for the upcoming workshop in Utah in November. \u00a0It is such a comfort to know that when you are not sure you can keep up the pace, that God will provide just what you need!! \u00a0It has been great to spend this time with Jay and Susan Miller as well, what great people!!!!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The next assignment is the Mountian People&#8217;s Workshop run my Western Kentucky Universities Photojournalism Department and it is being held in Henderson, Kentucky, farming country! \u00a0It should provide a great chance to seek out the less than obvious photographs, which is exactly what the student attending will be trying to do. \u00a0I will do all I can to help them and try to find great images myself, as well!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>No blog tomorrow, as I will be traveling all day and into the night. \u00a0I hope to get back in business on Tuesday. \u00a0Thanks for tagging along.
