Ending the School Year

Last Wednesday was the last day of school at Lake Hazel Middle School. It seems weird to think that I will not be back in the fall. Altogether there were 15 teachers retiring or leaving for other reasons. I guess I started a trend.

The last few days I've been trying to get everything packed up as I won't be back to Idaho until September. I have to figure out what to take to Morocco, what to pack for the two months of traveling around the Northwest in July and August, what to pack for Rwanda, and what to put in storage. I've also taken two carloads of stuff to the Melba Friends Church yard sale and I'm still finding more stuff that I don't need to keep. The plan is to finish up by Wednesday morning and then leave for Oregon with Joyce who is going to be in the MAT program at Fox for the next year. I'll be staying with my aunt and uncle in McMinville until Sunday the 18th when I'll start orientation for the YCEW trip to Morocco. We'll fly out on Wednesday the 21st and return just in time for Yearly Meeting. It's going to be a busy summer.
