Since TESOL life has been about two things: work, and planning for the summer. So far, we've got a quick trip to Ohio (early June); Québec city and its 400th anniversary celebration (late July); a visit from some of my Ohio family (mid-August); and Rebecca's wedding in Germany, with a tour around Berlin, Prague and Reykjavik (late August). We'll try to get a few camping trips in there as well.
Last week we had another little brush with the realities of life when someone smashed our front passenger window and stole our GPS out of the car. Nothing else was gone.
