“There is no Sleepy Hollow on the Internet, no peaceful spot where contemplativeness can work its restorative magic. There is only the endless, mesmerizing buzz of the urban street.” Nicholas Carr, from The Shallows: What the Internet is Doing to Our Brains (New York: Norton, 2010)

Bog 10-My house
I live in Erlanger, Kentucky which is literally 2 minutes from Crestview Hills. We started this blog to talk about places and one place that really brings beauty is my house. Recently, my brother and I were doing some yard work and we were finished, I sat down on my back porch to relax. While I was sitting there, the night was creeping in and it was one of the most beautiful sky scenes I have seen. It was bright orange and pink surrounded by darkness. Because of this class I have really began to appreciate what the world has to offer. It was so beautiful and I couldn't stop looking at the sky. I got my mom to come out and see, and of course she took pictures. I really do appreciate nature and all the beauty it gives to us, even when we aren't paying attention.
