The Summer Fun!

The Haystack team has obtained some new and greatly needed toys this wonderful labor day weekend.  Will's out surfing the waves of the storm while I am playing on our new computer, reading some books from the Lewes library, and enjoying my cup of coffee.

We've settled into east coast time and our new lives as college professors...Can you believe a retired rocker and a drama queen from Hawaii are teaching adults now?  I am loving the schedule & management techniques of the college teacher, however I miss the hugs of my little kindergarteners and the smiles of my fifth graders.


Speaking of hugs and smiles, we were able to travel through Chicago to celebrate Shane and Jeremy's wedding.  The city was incredible!  Great art, architecture, and FOOD.  There is this place called the "Purple Pig" that has the most amazing pork shoulder in the entire world.  It falls apart like Kalua Pork, but it's even better because it is swimming in this creamy gravy.  They also have some very tasty wines to wash it all down.  Jeremy's wedding was beautiful and was at a great location.  We were able to peruse the nature museum's exhibits while sipping cocktails and meeting the family.  All-in-all Chicago was a great town.



Delaware has been beautiful too!  We've had great weather, even with a hurricane passing through, we've had great sun-shiney days.  Will's had some waves and I have my wine.  So we got all our W's covered :)  He's been able to catch up with his buddies and I've met some great new people.  We've been spending most of our days getting ready to teach adults at the college level, but now I think we are ready for Delaware teaching phase 2.

What is phase 2?  Substitute teaching.  Stay posted...
