And I'm off...

Well, I start my travel journey to Scammon Bay tomorrow morning.  In many ways this time, since I accepted the job in April, has flown by. Yet I’m so thankful for it and this year I spent at home. 

I’m all packed.   I sent up a few binds full of my winter clothes, classroom things, and apartment essentials.  Here I am drilling the wholes and zip-tying them shut!  Two of them took exactly one month to arrive in Scammon!  They had me a little nervous, but I’m pleased they will be waiting for me.  

I set out for Seattle in the morning.  I get to be with, Megan, one of my college roommates till Saturday when I will get on a plane to Anchorage. My school district, The Lower Yukon, has teacher training in Anchorage since their schools are in villages spread out across hundreds of miles.  I’ll head to my home in Scammon on the 13th of August!
