    Where I've been
    Sorry I haven't been around much in the past two months. I've been super busy with school stuff. Mostly, final exams/papers, and more importantly, graduating from law school! Woo hoo! Unfortunately, we don't get much time to celebrate. Bar exam prep classes started two days after graduation, and I'll be doing that until the Alabama Bar exam July 27-29. So I probably won't be around a whole bunch for another 2 months, but I thought I'd bring my extended family up to date and thank you guys for being a happy retreat for relaxing sanity over the past few years!

    Congrats on finishing, and good luck with the Bar. I was surprised to hear that bar certs are generally not transferable between states.

    Congratulation, Brad.
    Will be good when you can get back more often but the studies come first.

    I want to wear silly academic regalia like that! I want to graduate from cheap single-color nylon to expensive color-patched velvet! Congratulations on completing all the hard work that got you there!

    Re: Where I've been
    Thanks yall! I appreciate it. You are correct GB1, this profession is still stuck in its old fashioned roots; you are only licensed in one state. If you want to move to a different state, you must pass their Bar exam. You may take individual cases in other states on a pro hoc vici basis, which is basically a temporary admission for that case alone, and almost all states require you to get a local attorney to help you.

    Anyway, I'm sooooo glad to be done with school. For good! Once I get this Bar stuff out of the way, I definitely plan to get back to shooting more often. I've got a lot of make up to do.

    Great news Brad. Make the next few weeks count and get yourself ready to breeze thru those bar exams. The track and the cameras will still be there when you are done taking care of business. Congrats from your PR buddy.
