Teach For America – Philadelphia

On February 25, 2006, I accepted a job with Teach For America to teach elementary school in Philadelphia. This blog will chronicle my experiences over the next two years – it's a personal reflection and isn't sponsored by Teach For America in any way.

Day Trip in Yosemite


After we left the Bay Area, Gabe and I stopped at my parents' place for the night, then spent yesterday in Yosemite National Park. The weather was spectacular and the crowds were relatively small. The Merced is near flood level because of the hot temps and big snow pack – the waterfalls were gushing. It was awesome. This was Gabe's first time there so it was kind of cool seeing the Park through his eyes a little bit. I've been there a dozen times or more and I think each time has been eventful in one way or another. It was a great last trip before leaving the state.

I'm now in "final countdown mode" before moving to Philadelphia. I have a thousand things to do, both big and small (and all important) before I fly back east for a couple weeks, then come back here only to pack the car and start driving east again.
