Saturday trip to Albany

The detail in this piece of artwork really intrigued me.
Even though it's a close-up, this mouse drummer was only four inches tall. 

     I shot this picture with my phone while driving  south on Columbus Blvd on our way back to Corvallis after spending time with my Father-in-law at the Mennonite Village one day only Art Show on Saturday October 7th, 2023. 

                             The Art Show Consisted of residents of the Mennonite Villagers.

Taking the first steps towards becoming an adult can be stressful, but don’t be scared. If you have a car or some other form of transportation, you know the cost it entails maintaining and fueling that vehicle so you can get to your classes on time. Here is one way to relieve that stress with an alternative to driving.    The Linn-Benton Loop is a fareless transportation service between Albany and Corvallis, running Monday through Friday.

  Media Project Movie Review By Mike McReynolds I chose this movie to review because of the sheer cinematography and the lasting impression it left on myself and my family.

My youngest son, Josh, loves the director. Here is the trailer for the movie. Watch it at your own risk! Just joking, it’s fine.

Media Blog Project 1 Option 2-What kind of culture is television reflecting back at us today? This question had me stumped until I watched the season finale of the show I have been watching. See, I don’t have cable tv to watch actual tv series. I watch YouTube channels where I skip the commercials but there’s one show I watch that has some of the best commercials. That show, you probably guessed already, is NFL Football. Like a tv series, there is an opening weekend which coincidentally starts in the Fall. The season goes for 18 weeks.

I noticed that as the season went along it started to shift to be more inclusive of women when it came to advertising.
