Its all good

Went to Birmingham on Monday to visit a landscape architecture firm with a class. We also went to a new urbanist development called Mount Laurel. Nice place but expensive. Check out their website. With residential real estate as it is right now, they have stopped building. It is sort of a cross between Southern Village and Governer's club, for those of you who know Chapel Hill. I missed the turn at Tuscaloosa on the way home and tried to get back to HWY 82 by navigating the country roads around tiny hamlets like Union and Aliceville, which was a little unnerving. Made it home just in time for cub scouts. Now I have four projects going in four classes and not enough time. In Design I we are developing a landscape plan for the local mosque. The leader of the mosque owns a Middle Eastern restaurant in town and every time we go over there to measure or take photos he brings us out a ton of really good food. Today I must come up with a concept and some design elements. I'm thinking symmetry. Also get ready for trick or treating tonight. The dog busted out yesterday by getting into the crawl space and removing some loose bricks under the front porch. I came home to her standing on the front porch and a note on the door saying "Punkin is in our back yard. She got out earlier today. -R, next door." So she broke out of two yards, actually.
