Incredible Sight

I intend to put up some photos of my surroundings, but until then you'll have to visualize the amazing vistas. This morning was the first time I road my bike to school. On the horizon is Mt. Bachelor, one of Oregon's premier skiing/snowboarding mountains. I left around 6:30am, so the sun had yet to rise, and I could see the glow of the Cat's lights as the machine worked its way uphill, rumbling across the mountain, grooming the snow for another day of fun.

Bend, Part II

I have arrived! It was a looooong drive from La Grande to Bend where I consumed a lot of sunflower seeds and even a bit of coffee (not really coffee, it was more chocolate, vanilla, milk, and sugar plus a little coffee on the side). Yesterday, my first full day, was fantastic. I met my cooperating teacher and we get along very well, then moved most of my stuff in, went on a bike ride (first in about three months!), and hit Mt. Bachelor in the afternoon. It was fantastic, I can get used to this.

Today it's school and Superbowl. School because I need to finalize my plans for student teaching and Superbowl, well, because.
