I'm like an 11 year old just back from sleep-away camp with a hundred run-on sentences about everything I saw, everyone I fell in love with, every little thing I did... words and photos are just beneath the surface... just waiting for my head to stop with all the spinning.

I'm also painfully slow to process new experiences which is why I talk in lists and pictures, sometimes.
Bear with me...
