Where the Sidewalk Ends by Shel Silverstein
There is a place where the sidewalk ends
And before the street begins,
And there the grass grows soft and white,
And there the sun burns crimson bright,
And there the moon-bird rests from his flight
To cool in the peppermint wind.
Let us leave this place where the smoke blows black
And the dark street winds and bends.
Past the pits where the asphalt flowers grow
We shall walk with a walk that is measured and slow,
And watch where the chalk-white arrows go
To the place where the sidewalk ends.
Yes we'll walk with a walk that is measured and slow,
And we'll go where the chalk-white arrows go,
For the children, they mark, and the children, they know
The place where the sidewalk ends.

Dubiously and Diligently working
Hi folks. It's been a long time since I've updated this journal. I used to enjoy featuring photographic works from across dA. I've let my subscription slip, but I still login every evening and check out new works from my :+devwatch: list.
It's been busy! I was living in New Mexico this time last year. I moved to Dallas for the summer. Now, I'm living in Atlanta, GA. I took a teaching position at Georgia State University and I REALLY dig it. I'm having a great time doing what I love, but it is stressful sometimes. I don't get nearly enough time for photography anymore. It will probably be summer before I get to do more of it. In th
FOR A FRESH START...
So, I've been around...checking in on your deviations from time to time, but largely inactive on dA for a while. I got sucked into some other projects. I've moved across the country once more and I'm living in the southwest again. I took a professorial position at a junior college. Tomorrow is the first day back for students, so hopefully, all goes well. I hope everyone here has been doing well. Please do check in and say hello. Let me know what you think of my features choices. Some of them may have come from YOU!
I've been saving up these features in my favorites, so I hope you enjoy.

FF'S, vol. 37 MASSIVE FEATURE
At least more massive than normal...
It's been a long, long time and I'm exhausted. I've been working a full-time job, another part-time job, and interviewing in the mean time for other full-time jobs all over the nation. Good news though!! I have every weekend booked through May with photo shoots with models. Some are paid and some are TFCD, so that's cool.
Well, I've neglected dA and my good friends here, so hopefully you'll forgive my absence by seeing these awesome shots I've come across.

Just checking in.
I'm sorry I haven't been around much folks, but be assured, I see your deviations. I come on daily to clear messages and :+fav: deviations. Otherwise, I haven't had much time to be active on dA lately. I took a "bill paying" job, been working overtime with that and still working my other part time job, so I'm exhausted. I'm hanging in there, but I miss you all.
Best to you,
Jeff
