A First Post

Greetings!

I'm sending this post out to the interwebz as a sort of test.  I've been a longtime blogger on Red Hair and Running Shoes and before that Live Journal.  Lately running hasn't been quite the overwhelming focus it once was in my life, and I've been wanting to share some of what goes on in my classroom.  Yes, that could be done on RH&RS, but  I've been reading a lot of teaching blogs and wanting to join in the fun.  As you can tell from the title, this blog is an attempt to merge the two aspects of my life into one.  You may like runner blogs.  You may like teacher blogs.  Maybe you're good with reading a bit about both worlds.  There's even the possibility that there may be some mention of Disneyland here, or books, or movies, or my adventures around Southern California.

Sadly, I'm not crazy-adept at web design or knowing what is visually appealing.  I just use pre-designed templates that are pretty simplistic.  If that's all good with you, welcome!  Never having been a "big" blogger, I'm not expecting a lot of traffic, but please do comment if you drop by.  I'll return the favor and pay you a visit as well!
