exhausted is probably the best way to describe me right now. the past few weeks have been filled with the busy-ness of preparing for the new schools starting tomorrow. we are running 6 schools this quarter with something like 120 students. Needless to say our staff has been running around like chickens with their heads cut off. as things always seem to do around here my schedule for the quarter has changed. as of today i am no longer staffing the school of social justice and am now working with the Phase II Leadership school . this is quite a change of gears for me and am more or less kind of just winging it right now (is this a sign of good leadership or lack of preparation...who knows..) michele has also moved out here about two weeks ago. we are living in an apartment near the offices and she has a job at a salon down the street. it has been good having a bit of home out here and i am happy to have her out here. fall is deffinately in the air . the nights have become considerably colder and there are rumors of snow in the mountains this week. it is amazing how quick things change out here. as things start to slow down a bit for me i will update more often. hope life is treating you all well. many of you  havent talked to in some months. know i miss you and think of you often. love you guys.

cheers.
