SERIOUS readers and writers!

Our Sacred Writing Time is proving to be some of the best 10 minutes of the day! Daily practice and teacher feedback make this time extremely valuable! Thank you Corbett Harrison!

New Sony Bloggie

Have you seen the Sony Bloggie? It may be the easiest video (MP4 HD) and still camera I've ever used. With the attached USB connector, transferring video to the Internet is easy! I got to play with the Bloggie today at the New Harmony Kunsfest. It was another beautiful weekend of festivals and fall fun! This short example from the Bloggie was taken at the roofless church.

River Days

We have had an incredible weekend of beautiful weather and local activities. River Days is a local festival celebrating the Ohio River, our town of Mt. Vernon, and our people past and present. Our sixth grade students took a field trip to the celebration on Friday, September the 13th. We participated in the opening ceremonies, viewed historical demonstrations, sampled many different foods, and listened to stories about the Ohio and our town.

Fun at Solitude

Ever wonder what you'll do with your time when you retire? This retired history teacher has created a pioneer village where he shares the history of our Posey County. We had some delicious burgoo in Solitude last Thursday. Thanks Jerry!

Another retiree, Mary Dixon, has written a poetry book and will soon have a book signing at Barnes & Noble. She asked me to create a place for her on the web. Check out her accomplishments at http://www.faithfirstpoetry.blogspot.com/
