Hello everyone

Robin and I made it to Hong Kong.  It has been a week, and so much has happened it almost feels like a 6 months.  However today we went to the island and looked at galleries.  Robin did well I think and we have High hopes for her. This is our apartment and view.  It is nice. P.S. It is so HOT here I feel like i am swimming through humidity and sweat.

New Life Changes.

What a wild ride it has been.  Recently I have received a Job, Graduated from Graduate school, and Gotten married.  All wonderful changes however they all happened with in a month.  Robin had moved out to Iowa just in time for her to have an interview the next day with ICS.  3 days after her interview and 6 days after mine we have the wonderful opportunity to move to Hong Kong.  They needed an answer with in 5 days so we prayed and took the job.  Two weeks later I graduated and that weekend we move our wedding date up from Aug. 2 to May 24.  Robin and I pulled our wonderful wedding together in 6 days for paper work and to easy into marriage versus cannon balling into hong kong and marriage.  Right now we are preparing and seeing family before our two year journey takes us away.

Finishing up

Life has been crazy.  I am finishing up with school in May, so thesis and thesis show is coming up.  I worked at the figge in helping put up an installation.  What a great experience that was. here is some information about the process of putting it up and the artist.  

Landscape: Ingalena Klenell and Beth Lipman

Here is Steve Banks blog, a local artist in Davenport, who helped with the installation and documented the installation wonderfully.
