I’m still in the funk of not having enough time to sit down and right. No, not complaining, just lamenting. Since my last post I’ve been able to deliver SMART boards to 6 teachers on my campus. Great things, great things happening with the teachers who are utilizing them. Hard to tell whose smiles are bigger, the students or the teachers.

Some cool things going in the next few weeks for me. My wife found a UBER huge deal on a cruise out of Miami. Family of four going to the Bahamas the weekend before Thanksgiving in a mini suite for just over $700.  Too good of a deal to pass up. As is typical with an educator, I’m looking for the best way to get some educational benefit out of this trip for my kids. My son will be way too young to remember any fort we go to or any tour of the parlaimentary building in Nassau. I’ve been trying to find a way to get jump started into the world of geocaching. Trying not to point out the fact that I have no GPS device, it’s just the thing to go out and buy one.

It’s also like living in a bubble. Never knew that geocaching.com existed. Researched and found some that were close to both Port Lucaya on Grand Bahaman Island and in Nassau. When explaining geocaching to my AP and groveling to borrow her GPS device for the trip, she told me to look into buying some for the school. Not a bad deal if you ask me. Just told me to find some ‘justification’ for using it in school. What better way then showing her Ed Warkentin’s “Teach em to Fish” blog post on using geocaching in education from April 15th of this year.

More later, time for sleep.
