Slowly Calling the Burbs Home/ Suburbia

Patricia Lahrmer's reading "Slowly Calling the Burbs Home," was very interesting in my opinion. At first I was'nt sure if Lahrmer was describing a suburb area that she liked or disliked. As I got more into the reading, I realized that Lahrmer's reading was describing how living in a surburb area can easily take affect in someones lives. When finished with the reading, I began to wonder how my life would be if I lived in a surburb area. I also thought to myself if I would to feel the same way Lahrmer describes in her reading. In overall, I really enjoyed this reading.
Bill Owens photographs in "Surburbia," were interesting to see. Every photograph has a caption with it, describing the picture. When looking through the photographs and reading the captions, I noticed that every picture is Owens way of showing his feelings towards a surburb area. I also noticed that each photographs shows the way of life in a surburb area.

In my opinion, both Lahrmer's reading and Owens photographs are somewhat different. Their discriptions show their different feelings towards a surburb area.
