Week #5

Posted by Ashley Beal on July 10, 2014 at 3:05 PM

Well hello. Hope everyone’s Fourth of July was awesome despite the rain.

My new favorite thing to do right now is History Pin. History Pin is a site where one can post pictures, videos and audio to the location it came from. Looking at all the other pins and videos gave me a great idea to put together a small video of the Barnum museum and its exhibits to give people a closer look at what they may find. Lately, I been looking up pictures on postcards from the past and posting them up in the location they used to be in. A lot of my attention has been focused on doing this because I love the changes that happened from then to now. My favorite past and present picture is the Barnum Museum. The building looks the same but has its differences.

We welcomed the two new Echo interns this week, on Thursday, which was exciting. They are from my alma mater, Kolbe Cathedral, so it is pretty cool to see kids from my old school doing something. Plus it’s a great opportunity to see how the school is doing and to catch up on how the teachers are now.

Some exciting news for the upcoming weeks is I get to start my research on the mini circus. I can’t wait. I hope I find some interesting things with that.

Until next time, visit our History Pin and see the great pins I posted.
