January 2011

January has gone by soooo fast--that's a good thing! We are now on the upswing with daylight...almost 7 hours and 30 minutes! It sure does make a difference! We haven't had much snow--and for the most part January has been cold. It sure is beautiful though-cold temps equal sunny, clear skies!

I have been cross-country skiing quite a bit. There are so many great trails here, it's hard to choose.

School is going great, I have the nicest students...who would have thought I could say nice when describing 8th graders. Conferences come up in February...then Spring Break! It will be summer before I know it!

Christopher will be here for SB--it's also the Iditarod, hopefully we can see some of the race. He doesn't know this yet, but I plan to get him outside and exploring during his visit! I'll have to take him to Girdwood and Mt. Alyeska.

I can't believe I have been here over two years...time sure does fly by!
