Yesterday was my first

1/12/10 -- Yesterday was my first author visit of 2010. Nice to work close to home, only a two hour drive from Corvallis to Fairview, Oregon. Great kids and teachers at Salish Ponds Elementary. Unusual in that all three third grade classrooms had male teachers. Nice to see guys in there making a difference for kids, too! We need more, though.

Several people asked for photos of the snowshoeing on Saturday. I didn't take many pics, but here are a couple: (Debbie on the left, and a creek that runs into Gold Lake on the right.)
