The teacher's chair!
View from my classroom
Distance learning where wifi and cell are limited presented some challenges last week. I was able to make contact with all of my classes. For the most part, I felt the classes went OK. I would like to hear from students on what they thought.
Here are some images from Lake Powell
I will be teaching distance learning this week from Friday to Friday. I will be in a remote place using a car battery, a hot spot, a DC to AC converter, a laptop, and a chrome book to come to you live each day. Should I encounter any connectivity issues, please check the google classroom for your work. I plan on being live each day!

Believe it or not, I am playing in three fantasy football leagues this season. There is the Diamond Dog Fantasy Football League, better known as the DDFFL. I consider the DDFFL my main league, we will be starting the 20th season. The second league I am in is called the East Coast League. I started in this league with a son of mine and brother in law/son of his and their friends. Since we began about nine seasons ago a couple of the guys have moved out west from Virginia and the league is about 60/40 east coasters. And the final league I am in is called the GFL. Don't know what G stands for in GFL. The league has been around for 35 years. I am participating in my second year with the league. I joined the league because one of high school buddies has been in it the entire time.
