Good Golly Miss Molly !


As of yesterday afternoon .......Molly is the new K/1 teacher at the highly acclaimed Roseville Community School !!.........above photo is from the school website. She's very excited as the school is such a great match with her teaching philosophy.......not to mention teaching jobs are impossible to get in California right now !! But, truly ......the school is a small private school......Molly will have 10 students in her class.......the school is non- graded....lots of gardening......parent participation.....exploration and discovery are the driving learning factors. Hey.....apparently a big chunk of funding comes via the Bill Graham Foundation......not Billy Graham !!.......but, Bill Graham, 60's music guy.....the Filmore...etc........must be a pretty cool school! Anyhow....we're so proud and happy for her !
After she received her job offer yesterday she came up to Auburn to look for a house to rent. Jill, Espen and I had fun tagging along. She found a great place in her price range....cheap !.......and so I guess she and Ross will be moving soon. Of course, I'm just a little bit happy they'll be living so close !
Today my Dad came up to see everybody......we had a nice lunch on the deck and a good visit. Soon after he left Jim discovered that a bear had broken into the chicken coop......no fatalities , but he spent the afternoon repairing the damage. The rest of us....on the other hand ....spent the afternoon playing games on the deck. It was a nice cool day and it actually rained for a while !
Time to figure out dinner for tonight.......seems like I just got done fixing lunch !!........maybe some fajitas ! Maybe not.......I'll check out what I have around !
