ok, so i stand corrected on this sophomore/world civ thing- ryan montgomery assured me this very evening that as of this week he is teaching american studies with jan scott now that miss sanders has moved on to a job in frankfort. he said that who is teaching what has been in a kind of flux, as dhs has hired at least 10 new teachers, he being one of them,. he was at the preservation conference event that we catered at constitution square this evening, along with chris harmon, the bchs swimmer, who went through the buffet line at least 3 times.

having had no vacation this summer, i have begun to fantasize about travel as i work. an alternation travel scenaro follows:

day 1- fly to paris; sightsee in afternoon; to bed early
day 2- paris
day 3- tgv to bordeaux- afternoon wine tasting, museum, and good lunch and supper; sleep in bordeaux
day 4- train to bilbao; museum in afternoon
day 5- bilbao
day 6- train to madrid
day 7- madrid
day 8 train to barcelona
day 9- barcelona
day 10- train to paris
day 11- paris
day 12- fly home

imagining travel plans always makes me happy.
