New Beginning

A student approached me after class the other day to ask, "Do you post as Sparky Lightbulb?" I said no, and at the moment that I responded, I meant it. Then I remembered that I used to blog—as Sparky! Oh, no! Students had learned my secret identity! Oh, no! What information that I didn't want to share had they discovered?

I signed into my Blogger account ready to "draft" any embarrassing posts—if not delete the entire body of work—but I discovered that this blog is a charming snapshot of my life two years ago. So what if a person who knew me as Clark Kent got a little insight into my Superman?

Rereading some of the posts here reminded me how much I enjoyed blogging—as well as photographing, something else I've essentially abandoned as my work life and other projects swallowed up my time. I dusted off the camera, and, in search of a sure thing, drove to the Lukas Nursery Butterfly Encounter, where I shot those proverbial fish in a barrel:

I had so much fun that I might just have to dust off the Spandex and cape, ready to soar through cyberspace once again!
