Got out Friday, our spring break long weekend (as “professional staff,” I’m in the office M-Th), and got in a 25 mile ride in hte 40’s. Today started at 29 but should be up in the 50’s and there’s a ride at 2:00 supposed to be 12-14 mph…I’ll take the fast bike just in case […]

It’s a good thing my life is very simple. I am determined to learn this Java stuff. I’m not sure whether I will be able to or not and I’ve already pretty much abandoned developing any other curricular materials. Why? Because of the glory of struggle.
