Those pictures are absolutely gorgeous! So very peaceful and serene. I'm jealous! I'm glad to hear you are settling in and that you are finding such great activities. Does this mean we'll get beautifully hand lettered holiday cards?? (Hint! Hint!). I'm certain your students have learned so much from you. But, the important question is did you tell them about candy corn?? Hahaha gotta eat the little points off first! All the best from Virginia :)

"Your Experienced, all-knowing friend" uh huh, you are a goober, O' Mr. Wise One. I'm glad you're having a fun time in Japan; I can't believe it's been 3 months! The hiking photos are gorgeous and I'm glad you're enjoying the fresh air. It was really neat to read about the differences in American versus Japanese schools! You should write more about cultural differences in future posts :)

With my education background I really enjoyed your details about the school day set up. A little Montessori thinking with their lunch system and clean up the school regime. Those 5 min makes the building personal to them. Plus I had to smile at the indoor shoes practice. Jenna is ahead of the game.

I'm glad you are living a normal day after the election results. It's that simple or should be. Your closing video was perfect.

Fall in Omaha is in full swing, also. Some trees still green, others full yellow, some bare.

Even with the drought Fall is happening.
