So imagine our delight when we discovered the best-selling book The Hidden Life of Trees: What They Feel, How They Communicate by Peter Wohlleben. Then there’s the historic Charter Oak on our hunt in Hartford, Connecticut, and an ancient mulberry tree outside a historic house on our Annapolis hunt, and…we could go on. On the Babson College campus outside of Boston, teams must locate an apple tree that descends from the very tree Isaac Newton sat under when falling fruit prompted his “eureka!” moment. In another Washington Square in New York City’s Greenwich Village, our hunt points out the “Hangman’s Elm,” which legend (inaccurately) says helped execute criminals back in colonial times. In Philadelphia’s Washington Square, we send hunters in search of the tree that grew from seeds that traveled into space and back with an Apollo mission. That’s just one of the reasons we love to feature trees on our outdoor scavenger hunts. Mother Nature’s masterful sculptures are right by the curb or the park bench, but they are so often and so easily overlooked. You don’t have to head to a museum to see an impressive work of art. The vast majority of the music is from the exact album or artist.

Having purpose, love, happiness is like a dance – we know all the moves, we just have to keep on moving, keeping in step, not letting go of our dance partners, for as long as the music plays. Dancing becomes a metaphor for a fulfilling life. Represented by the warped, non-linear space-time of the Dolphin Hotel in Sapporo and an old multi-storied building in Downtown Honolulu, these “other” spaces contain the potential for personal healing by offering characters and audiences alike a chance to restore, rebuild, and rediscover a sense of self. Set in Hokkaido, Tokyo, and Hawai‘i, Dance Dance Dance leads us to open doors to “other” places. SUN 2:00pm (1/29 American Sign Language interpretation)Īdapted with permission from the novel by Haruki MurakamiĪdapted & Directed by MFA Candidate Maggie Ivanova Here Allen Say tells a haunting and provocative story of dreams and choices for readers of all ages. Through a simple text and extraordinary paintings, the reader learns of the temptation of safe choices and the uncertainties of following a personal dream. As they are about to paint the last sign, the boy looks up and sees in the distance a magnificent structure. The two are commissioned to paint a series of billboards in the desert. In the years before becoming a full-time author and illustrator, Say worked as a sign painter and photographer, as well as being drafted into the U.S. He meets a sign painter who takes him on as a helper. For him this separation was not as important as finding a meaning behind the contradictions and choices we all must make in life and their consequences.Įarly one morning a boy comes into town, hungry, and looking for work. In his Caldecott acceptance speech for GRANDFATHER'S JOURNEY, Allen Say told of his difficulty in separating his dreams from reality. I want to express my deep gratitude to all of those who have sent messages of support over the past months. I seem to have stabilized at a persistent low-grade depression - which of course isn’t ideal, but continuing my hiatus clearly isn’t the way to go about solving it. Unfortunately, that didn’t work as well as I’d hoped, but on the flip side, I also don’t feel any worse. Once you build up that much inertia, it’s really hard to overcome it’s like I’ve been hovering at the edge of a pool for months, trying to work up the nerve to jump in.Īs you may remember, the motivation for my hiatus was to focus on improving my mental health. The longer I stayed away, the more difficult it became to return. What I originally intended to be a 4-6 week absence has stretched into about 6 months, and I know that many people have been concerned about this extended radio silence. First off, I want to apologize for the unexpected length of my hiatus. Wes has stadiums packed with screaming fans, ESPN is all over him, and the NFL wants him badly. His heart belongs to Justin, even though the world wants it to belong to football. The truth? Wes isn’t dreaming about an NFL contract. But he couldn’t stop himself.Įveryone’s asking questions about Wes this season: How is he playing so well? Will Texas be undefeated this year? Will he take the team all the way to the national championship? What’s next for him? He should never have fallen into Wes’s open-range eyes or let his heart run wild when Wes gave him that shy little smile over summer. Justin Swanscott has three certainties in his life: he’s gay, football is overrated, and he really, really doesn’t like cowboys. But he’s been keeping a secret from everyone. Three years in, he has it all: he’s the starting tight end, team captain, and, according to ESPN, maybe the best college football player in the nation. Wes Van de Hoek clawed his way off his family’s West Texas ranch under the Friday night lights, earning a football scholarship to the state’s best university. Brooks places the epicenter of the Bigfoot war in a high-tech hideaway populated by the kind of people you might find in a Jurassic Park franchise: the schmo who doesn’t know how to do much of anything but tries anyway, the well-intentioned bleeding heart, the know-it-all intellectual who turns out to know the wrong things, the immigrant with a tough backstory and an instinct for survival. A volcanic eruption is quite another, for, as the journalist who does a framing voice-over narration for Brooks’ latest puts it, when Mount Rainier popped its cork, “it was the psychological aspect, the hyperbole-fueled hysteria that had ended up killing the most people.” Maybe, but the sasquatches whom the volcano displaced contributed to the statistics, too, if only out of self-defense. Are we not men? We are-well, ask Bigfoot, as Brooks does in this delightful yarn, following on his bestseller World War Z (2006).Ī zombie apocalypse is one thing. This is the second Pretend or fake summer romance I have read this month. With feelings, emotions, and kissing flying all around, will Cam ever stop the pretending and land the true love she’s been looking for? But to everyone on the inside things get messy fast. Or at least it seems like it’s working from the outside. Although the plan seems impossible, Cam quickly realizes it’s working. Not wanting to see the shell of a person Cam once was thanks to Nick, Josh comes up with an idea: he will play the role of Cam’s boyfriend to make Nick jealous. And the fact that he brought his new girlfriend Gina along for his vacation is only making it worse. Now that he is back, she is quickly falling apart one again. The heartbreak Nick caused so long ago left Cam in pieces. It’s been a year since Cam last saw Nick, but the wound is still fresh. With her good friend Josh by her side, Cam is just starting to really enjoy the time off school, when Nick comes wandering back into her life. Despite many of her best friend being out of town for the summer, she is ready to have some fun. Everything in Cam’s life is finally going right. |
