About Me

I've been a teacher for 30 years, grades K-5, and currently direct Structured Learning Centers for kids with autism and multiple disabilities in The Dalles, Oregon. Gaining conversational ease in Spanish is an important professional and personal goal for me and attending Spanish schools in Latin America is a wonderful path to that end. I'm hoping to help others with their goals along the way.

Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008 - More fun, less rain!





Greetings from beautiful Honduras! I got up bright and early and hit the market when only locals were there (PHOTO 1). We were unable to make it to the mountains to visit a village for a ceramics demonstration - roads still impassable, maybe Friday. Instead we spent some time people watching in the parque central (PHOTO 2 - Stacey with little doll sellers) and took advantage of our 1st sunny afternoon to visit the butterfly place just outside of town. In addition to the butterflies the plants were really interesting (PHOTOS 3 and 4). My apologies for the sideways photo - I can't figure out how to turn it but wanted to include it anyway. Happy trails!
