cheerios gone bad

Calling in sick

I'm taking the night off tonight...skipping Cru because of the sickness I've acquired from my germ infested daughter.

I've started watching the BBC series Planet Earth. It's amazing, although I could have done without all the bats in the "cave's" episode...especially after our run in last month with bats in the Lewis and Clark Caverns. Anyway, so far the series is amazing...I consider myself fairly educated on geography and random trivia about the world, but I had no idea about a lot of the stuff in this series.

I forgot about this till just now

This happened at the end of our raft trip. Safety alert...I'm fairly sure it wasn't one of our students.

Paradise Valley

I took 140 students rafting down the Yellowstone river on labor day...this is my job...hahaha.

My extrovert tank is running a little low right now.

The sheer volume of people we've met in the first week and half of the school year is off the charts. The amount of conversations I've had is kind of mind-boggling, especially for this introvert. I love my job (most of the time), but it wears me out if I don't get some alone time, preferrably in the mountains or on the river, or just watching my daughter roll around on the floor.
