Lake Nerka

Many of you have asked about where I am going to be this summer. Here is a picture of the field camp on the shore of Lake Nerka in the Wood Tikchik State Park - North of Dillingham, Alaska. That is Church Mountain you see in the background (so I've heard - I haven't actually seen it yet.) The cabin in the foreground is one like the cabins I'll be staying in. (I hear there are two of them). The one on the left is where the family will be staying (who I will be nanny for). There are a few other buildings there also (lodge, shed, outhouse, etc.). So there you go - a picture to put with the idea of it all. I'm very excited and looking forward to getting all packed this weekend. I have to get my classroom all packed up and say goodbye to my kids for the summer first, though, before I can concentrate on Alaska. Thank you to everyone for all the help, good wishes, and everything else! Looking forward to a great summer for everyone in all the places we are. (I wish I could be everywhere!)

Nothin' to speak of . . . . .yet

Hey - this is just to test out the whole "blog" thing. Hopefully this is where I'll be able to post pictures and stuff this summer. Let me know if it worked for you.
