One of my favorite authors is Lawrence Millman. In one of his books, he mentions that when you reach your destination, the only thing to do is to start a new journey. I am reaching my destination and starting a new journey this week.
I wrapped up another school year today. The students finished yesterday with finals and today was a work day for teachers. We had to complete reports and turn them in to the appropriate parties today. I have two inservice days next week, so I still have more to do as a teacher, even though I won't be teaching.
Next Saturday, I leave for Alaska. I will be spending about 3 weeks there. We travel by boat from Vancouver to Anchorage, then travel by car to Fairbanks via Denali, and then to the Kenai Peninsula. I am looking forward to this trip! I will be taking a sled dog ride (though it won't be on ice or snow), a kayaking trip, hiking in Denali, fly fishing, and doing some biking. I am very excited about this trip! We see a lot of Alaska in our few days there. We will be in Ketichan, Skagway, Fairbanks, Anchorage, Denali, Homer, Seward, and Juneau. I think I would be fine in just one of these places for the three weeks!
