Just a few days after my last post, I got a call from Texas. My Uncle James passed away. He and my father worked and lived together their entire lives, so he was like a second father to me. We drove to and from the funeral — a 3,600-mile round trip — in my little [...]
We’ve been home from Corry for over a week now, and I’ve been meaning to bring the saga to a close. Right now, I should be working on getting ready for school, so naturally it is a perfect time to write a blog post.

So we’re in the final few days of our trip, and I’m still in denial about having to return to work. I should be reading and preparing lessons, working on my online courses, but I’m not. To do that is to admit the end of summer, and I’m not ready to let it go just [...]

Today was all about geocaching, so if that bores you, feel free to skip this entry.
Today was a bit frantic. Alexis spent the day near tears because she was having troubles with our wifi connection. It was her last day of work before a holiday weekend, end of month, and end of quarter. Translation: It was busy. She had such a hard time that we think we may have to [...]
Today I found five more caches, hiked 2.5 miles through the forest and marsh (a lot for me), had a minor panic attack when it appeared for a short while that the CCBC Geocachers weren’t going to be able to get their van, went to a geocaching event and met lots of nice cachers from [...]
