He leaves in two and half weeks, he'll be back in June. he's going to be teaching grades 6,7,8 core curriculum.
I am both very happy for him and very sad because he'll be pretty far away and due to last years events I get kind of paro about family safety.
I would totally go visit him, but a plane ticket costs $2700 dollars.
Mostly I am happy. This is going to be an incredible experience, and yes I would bug him to start a blog about it but {gasp} there is no internet up there...
nada.
none.
He is already talking to k-net about that, but I doubt it's something taht will change before June...

I've gotta take my hat off to someone who is brave enough to move to somewhere where there is no internet (could he get a satellite connection??)
the phone he will be using is in the schoolhouse (yeah uh-huh schoolhouse) and I'll bet it's already satelite so I doubt the internet is going tobe that easy to etsablish..
Something like "hey wow I got telnet working!"
"Let's all go kermit something or maybe we can use the gopher, or hook up to the lynx.."
I can barely remember what all those little beasties were for.
I know.. it's scary I am already planning the care package I will send him.
