Today's (school-wide) field work at Wind River Ranch
Students watch for bison, pronghorn, and elk as we enter the ranch.
Why do I always end up with bus monitor detail?!
What a pretty boy!
I sneak outside the bus - to the screams of the students - to take this shot!
5000 acres of beauty in Mora County.
Time to hit the road once more.
Nine weeks left of school. Nine weeks, not counting next week's Spring Break. Hard to believe I've lasted nearly the entire academic year. I miss writing for fun, miss the pound of foot against pavement, miss time, time, time and space to think and wonder, miss the lack of strict schedule. I suppose I miss just about everything and everyone I know.
I will say this: I discovered I make a damn fine eighth grade teacher. And perhaps in saying this - 'cause these teenagers are crazy, man, crazy - I am saying I can pretty much do anything.
