Don't stop going to school!

I have to post a few pics from my class!

I am so stoked about being able to build the projects we are given.

The first two pics are of a column that I am building. We have a blueprint that gives us the specs and we build it from there......they are small and we are graded on how we build it according to the specs.

I struggled for a bit, but now I have the basic steps down.

I still have a way to go....

The last two pics are of projects that the advanced groups are building.

They are doing cinder block walls and veneer work.

It's a great class and I really love it. I am mad I never tried it before!

Wow Richard! That's fantastic. Never stop learning! Notary is boring but can bring you the bucks! I'm fascinated by architecture so masonry is so cool. I almost majored in archeology but thought it would be hard to make a living at it. I'd love to do it as a hobby now. Where did you take the class Reddhead?
I've been signing up for every cooking class I can. I get to take them free so I consider it a job perk. I just love learning new things too!

great job

I love taking classes... but most of my interests revolve around dance and art and creativity stuff. I've been doing it with my mom since I was young. we always took some sort of line dancing class or craft class together.

Now that we live far away... this is something I still like to do and makes me feel closer to her in a way and soemthing I would LOVE for hannah to want to do with me in the future.

Right now I would like to take a belly dancing class. sounds liek fun and will be good fitness for me as well.

also I'd like to take some sort of crochet or knitting class as well as sewing.

Im just a creative person at heart and love to expand those types of things.

Thanks for this thread Richard!

I have a list of things I would love to learn that has been the same for years now!

I really would like to take a photographic course, pottery and painting again, since it's been ages that I painted something. Now if I stand before a blank paper I freeze, not knowing where to start! Also when I was about 9 yrs old I used to play the guitar, but not anymore, I forgot everything and would like to start again.

We had family visiting from Australia this summer and one particular couple have this really cool job! They work from anywhere in the globe that there is an internet connection, so they travel and work at the same time without being restricted! What exactly is that they do, I've yet to descover!! But their payment comes, I bellieve from Google and depends on how many people visit certain sites(by clicks)! Now tell me...isn't that cool?! If I had that job I believe it would be hard for me to seperate from my pyjamas!!!! Lol!
