Hi Jim. Sandy treated me just fine, bequeathing only little inconveniences like a broken fence and four days without power (and a couple of strong lessons, like it's good to stock up on batteries and think of nonperishable foods). How did you fare?

Hi Jim,
I noticed your post about teaching. I'm looking into teaching and will likely start with subbing in social studies. My injury was at c4/5 (incomplete) and am curious about the logistics of doing the job and doing things like taking pills while at school.
What was your experience and what level was your injury at? How did students react to you and your wheelchair?
It would be great to talk about this topic more.

That sounds just divine! I am afraid I do not have any stories to rival it, but I have greater hopes for autumn, my all-time favourite season. No more backpacking or field hockey for me at the moment, but it's a great time to curl up in the park with a book or roll along the river. After having had to take off a year between high school and college, I still celebrate that feeling in the air of a new year of New England campus life.

Hi Jim! I have to admit that despite your inspiring me, I have not yet found a way to give summer it's due. You are a teacher, no? Off for the summer? Have you any great plans on which I might electronically tag along? And how is life in general?

I'm good thanks, making reservations for w2w in Phoenix this year where I hope to meet more ccers! You?

I'm having less patience myself these days, putting in less effort really. And my wording tends to be convoluted, cc has too many good writers that I envy! You communicate quite clearly with strong arguments, but you would being a teacher. Time for me to go back to school!

Thanks

Hi Jim,
I came to visit. Nobody should have a blank wall, especially one who sports such stellar friends, quotes Steinbeck, and changes my world with the revelation that Yellowstone might be accessible to me again. Hope all is grand.
