El Fin


On June 17th I turned my WMB keys over to the new South Crew and flew to Chicago. I am in the process of completing a scrapbook which captures moments from my year on the road. Hopefully you'll be able to see it soon.


In mid-August I will be starting my new job as a third grade teacher. The picture above captures how I arrived to my first interview for the job. ...They always told us in college that we needed to make an impression that would set ourselves apart from the other applicants...
