And it begins!

We are sleeping over in Andover tonight, before making the trek to Logan and our 14 hours of lovely travel time. I'm so excited for this trip. I can already tell that there will be hundreds of stories and "inside jokes" that will keep us laughing for months to come. ( Did you know that a waning moon is the best time to see the northern lights?)

Over the past month I've asked everyone to start journaling a bit, and have sent out prompts to start the process. I'd love to have some students share what they have written down as they prepared for this trip.

I hope those of you not on the trip enjoy this blog. Feel free to comment :)

  1. Well, actually Julia, the best time to view the Aurora Borealis is in March (when there are clearer skies) during a New Moon. A waning moon, however, is on it's way to a new moon, so it will also be better viewing. The less lights in the sky, the brighter the northern ligts will be. :)
