Good News

After getting back from Istanbul and enjoy a few days with my friends from back home I received some bad news. One of my best friends from MN was in a bicycle accident last week in Portland, Oregon and had to be rushed to the hospital.  She has been in the ICU (intensive care unit) since the accident but she is out of it now and in a regular hospital room! She still has a lot of recovery but she is amazing the doctors everyday! If you'd like to follow her progress, a caringbridge account has been set up and it can be found here:




I love you Krista and hope your recovery keeps up the rate it's at now. I'm so happy your family is able to be there with you and I look forward to seeing you in July. You're amazing!

I also wanted to Congratulate my friend Amanda on her wedding and 25th birthday which happened this weekend! I love you babe!

Other than these events which have been occupying my brain for the past few days, I was able to go hiking with some of my students yesterday for our school's Sports Day. We had to make up a school day we had missed so we had Saturday school which turned out to be a great day! 


More photos can be found in the Links section by clicking on "Hiking on Karandila".

I hope everyone reading this is healthy and happy wherever you are!

Peace, love, literacy, and reckless curiosity.

  2. Thanks Jackie, I'm just glad she's out of the ICU now and things are looking much, much better! I hope your friend is doing much better as well. Will you be at swearing-in? If so, I'll see you there!
