Midwestern Round-Up
For the ‘best of’ my summer photography - click here!
I can’t believe it’s been 2 months. This is the longest I’ve spent in the Midwest in a long, long time. To top that off, it’s the longest I’ve stayed with family since I moved out at 18 years old. These two months have been all [...]

As a kid, I never saw a circus. I skipped right from playing circus games/acts with my older brother in our front yard (which landed me in the emergency room), straight to Vegas and seeing Cirque de [...]

One day left on my South Dakota family vacation. I survived two days of road tripping with my parents, and so far I concluded that I may need therapy after this. We decided to finish off our [...]

Escape from the Lake
Photo: Walker Art Museum - Minneapolis
I grew up in the country, however I never really considered myself a ‘country girl’. Instead, I always dreamed of the big cities; that’s where I knew I belonged. The past month I have spent time in the small towns of the midwest living a ‘country’ life. It’s quiet, scenic, [...]
Wisconsin – Beer, Cheese, and Women
Photo: Cedar Lake, Wisconsin - the next stop on my Midwestern Family Tour
I have traveled to yet another middle America state. I’m currently in Wisconsin surrounded by beer, cheese and women. This sounds like a dream location if I was a guy…but I digress. On my summer Midwestern Family Tour (not to be confused with [...]
Sex in the City - Small Town Style
Photo: Main Street Twin Brooks, South Dakota…bustling.
When I told my parents that I was coming to stay with them for a month, they seemed excited. Maybe it’s because then they don’t have to talk to each other as much…or maybe I just provide entertainment, who knows. However my mother was particulary excited and started filling [...]
Dairy Month - Experiencing New Cultures
Photo: South Dakota cows. If you are really in touch with Midwestern culture, you wil note that these aren’t dairy cows…
I’ve had one of those weeks…one where you leave the familiar and go to a foreign place where everything seems so different, amazing, and sometimes strange. You are exposed to new cultural traditions, values, and [...]
Sherry Has Left The Building
Photo: Shutting the door on my 5 years at 74th and Columbus…
There’s something surreal about seeing your bed wheeled down the streets of NYC on a dolly. Really – a sobering situation.
There I was, walking down the street with friends after dinner seeing my life possessions being carted down the street – God…this isn’t happening…is [...]
