time for another post...

Which no one will probably read as I haven't been updating very frequently. Well, time at Chewonki is winding down and let me say that although I'm going to be sad to leave, I'm not unhappy about having a break from kids. Its hard being responsible all the time.

Moving to Rutland on the 15th of November. The apartment will be pretty bare for the first few weeks as I traverse new england and pick-up the furniture which has been arranged. Grandparents, parents, and ikea will be furnishing my new home. Ski school training starts on the 28th. Actual work starts on the 3rd. December should be slow until christmas and then we'll be going like gangbusters until mid april. The weekends at Killington are always busy and the mid-week rental packages are priced to help bring people to the mountain so we're basically always going to be busy.

Vacumed out my car today.

Its been a while

Its been a while since I've updated and a lot has gone on. I don't really have the time for a full blown update right now so I'm just going to bring people up to speed on the important stuff.

Lila and I, last weekend, went to the killington job fair (killington is a large ski mountain in VT) which claims to have the longest ski season in New England. I have been hired as a ski instructor. Lila has been hired as health club attendant. We then spent sunday apartment hunting in Rutland (about twenty minutes from Killington) and found a small but very nice apartment in a nice house close to the cute part of rutland (as opposed to the strip mall part of rutland). We are going to do a lot of skiing (I'll be working five to six days a week on the mountain).

I move in on nov. 15th, lila comes about a week later. We are both starting work on the 28thish.

Many other things have happened. Lila and I have both been hired by the Sea Education Association to sail for them for the summer starting in May. She will be a steward and I will be a scientist.

Today was lila's birthday and we had a pretty good day. It was staff enrichment day which was sort of a drag but we had a good dinner at Scarlet B's.

Saw all my friends at Bowdoin and had one of the best times I've had in a long time. Wish I could've hung out more but we had to make a ridiculous trip to VT (and it paid off soo....)

Didn't see jon because he is a butthead. Actually he's not, I just don't have a cell phone anymore and he didn't realize.

More to come later...
