The blog continues!

The swans and cranes are flying over their call reminds me that a new season is about to begin. The beauty that fall brings is indescribable. The subsistence for moose is now over in Delta and my friends have redirected their attentions to spruce hen hunting. My brother did not get a moose this year, but he did say that he saw many sheep at the base of Mt. Hayes.
My nephews are doing well in school. The youngest is learning how to play guitar in kindergarten. He enjoys this so much. My nephews are growing fast reminding me of how fast life, technology, and the things we surround ourselves with change. Hope all is well with you all. Take care, Heather

Fall

Hello Everyone,
This week has gone by in a mad rush for me. Yet it ended on a nice note. As I was driving home from work last night, the sun was setting and the beautiful colors played across the sky. A flock of around one hundred swans flew in front of the sunset. Needless to say, the sight was spectacular. It was one of those moments where everything falls away and you forget your business and what you have to do, and just enjoy the present.
Most of the leaves have fallen off the trees in Delta and the wind is picking up reminding me winter is around the corner. Burr!
Hope all is well. Trying to get my homework done for Ed 330 has been difficult and challenging. Anyone else feel that way? Talk to you next week.

Thoughts on Panraven

I have been taking pictures for my project on Panraven. My only problem is that because I only have dial up it makes it very laboreous and painful to do anything with this program. I love technology yet I find that unless you have everything up to date it can be a pain. Our internet has been down and out a fiber optic cable was cut making any sort of communication difficult. I can see the benefit of technology, yet for the school in Delta I think it is still a distant hope. It has been raining steadily here in Delta lately gradually growing colder and colder. The ominous sign that winter is around the corner. A very sad thought. Betty, it is so good to hear you voice on the teleconference, even though we can't talk directly. Take care of yourself up in Kavilena sp? So long for now, Heather

Hello Everyone,
This is a picture of the view from my brother's place in Montana. This lake is the largest fresh water lake in the US.
School started full force for me this week. I went to my first school borad meeting. I found it relatively uneventful and boring. I think my arrival was the most interesting event of the night, seeing as I was one of three that came to the meeting. It was nice to meet the school board and the principles of the school I hope to eventually work in. Hope all is well with everyone. It was so nice to hear Betty's voice in English 200X. Later, Heather

I'm Back!

Well, I have arrived back from Montana. I am now back into the realm of technology. I have to admit it is nice to be cut off from the constant ringing of cell phones, text messaging, TV, and emails. It cuts alot out of your life. I had a wonderful time with my family, and my youngest brother is officially married. I sang at his reception, and it was a hit. School starts back up for me on Tuesday, and work is hectically busy. I hope all is well with everyone as summer comes to an end and fall saunters in. I so enjoyed our classes together, and I look forward to connecting with everyone via blog. Take care!
Heather
