Getting Closer

 

Hello Family and Friends,

The rain, never too long in absence in the great North West, has mellowed our summer Sunday enough to try blogging and Facebook. I’m not sure about any of it so far. The main goal is to keep informed those curious about our experience living and working in the Dominican Republic. We will try to post pictures, perhaps some video, and journal style entries. Facebook will serve as a way to let my extended community know about this blog. The blog will be accessible to all who care to follow along, whether they are Facebooking or not. Please feel free to send replies as updates on your own adventures.

We are leaving for the DR on July 29th. Kris starts work as a counselor/health teacher on Aug. 2nd and I start as an 8th grade U.S. history teacher on the 5th. We’ll miss Portland, our friends, the garden, the rivers, mountains, and funky progressive bike awesome life. We will also miss our annual East Coast migration this year, but hope to see you all next summer. We welcome visits to the DR. We expect to be there for at least two years, but if things go well who knows what will happen.

At the moment I’m unsure of how to email you when I update this blog, so the best way to follow along is to bookmark it and check back every few weeks. This would be a great help. Feel free to also check-out any of the links in our side bar, such as those to our new schools (Carol Morgan and MC).

 

We won't see much of this next year. Kris in Cascade winter wonderland.

Best, Zach
