Back from the hiatus...


I'm Back ! Thought I'd put a word out to see who's still out there on the net.

Hope e'ryone had a great summer. I did. I haven't got many pictures to prove it since my camera broke last spring, but I got a few here for ya.



Here's my girl posing on the bars after some biking and camping. We spent a few hours on the road and a night sleeping under the stars. We picked blueberries and made blueberry pancakes with them for breakfast the next morning. We continue to enjoy simple pleasures in life.





Since summer ended I've been working as a full-time math teacher at the International School of Helsinki. It's a really great school to be a part of and it's right in my neighborhood. So I still get to ride my bike to work everyday, and see some of my students and fellow teachers around my part of town. Yes, that's a good thing (mostly).


Here's my route to work. I live at Kalevankatu 40 and work is Selkämerenkatu.


Not much else to report right now. I'm short on words, but some are better than none... I guess?I hope everyone's well. I'll post some more pictures of my work. I now have a phone that takes pictures. I only need a usb cable to download them with. Basically, I just wanted all to know Elina and I are doing extremely well but miss our friends and family. Bye, for now.

Hi Seth

Ned, Asa and I all agree that you are looking very Nordic ( tho' technically I guess Finland is not Nordic, is it ?) You look like a young Ingmar Bergmann, yah..

We are well, and completely excited about our sojourn to see you and Elina this winter!! Let us know what we can bring you from Athens GA ( which is the "same as it ever was..")

Cheers!
Christine

(PS Asa was concerned that you are "giving too much information" when he saw your route to work posted.)

so good to see you! we all miss you and elina very much but are happy you are both doing well and loving work. school has started here and ty and ella love their teachers. soccer has started as well for both of them. tell elina i visited a new art gallery here in charlotte called red sky gallery and there are some fabulous sculptures!!! one in particular of a girl leaning sideways like she is blowing in the wind, hair blowing, skirt blowing and holding a loose bouquet of flowers in one hand.
it reminded me of her.
love to you both,
kak
