Is this my last post? Does anyone still read this?

I can't believe that next week I will be back in Illinois! I am wrapping projects and paperwork up hear and getting ready to leave next Wednesday. I fly out of here at 8pm Wednesday night and arrive in HI at 2:30 in the morning Wednesday. (Time travel thanks to the IDL) I then have a 20 hour layover to see HI and drink bloody marys. Then off to LA, Chicago, then Champaign. I arrive in Champaign at 6pm Thursday!

This past weekend I went to Eneco on last time and thought that I would include post a few pictures. Robyee, Courtney, and I had a shell carved in the shape of their yacht logo made for Ted and Karen as a thank you for being our island parents. Forest (barely viable in the back of the picture) is the artist and also a wonderful friend here on island.

Karen brought along a bouy for us to paint as apart of the coral reef protection project. I was the "coral master" in charge of painting all coral. I think I have found my life's calling!

I will see you soon! - K

Picture Update

My library remodel is doing well. I am in a hurry to catch a bus, so that I can get home and start making play dough for 30 1st graders. I think just having the pictures shows shat a great job the kids and I are doing. I am really impressed with how the whole school is willing to help.

Ryan, Enne, and Benjimon think that we moved all the books out to make a "boyshelf" not paint a bookshelf. They are too cute!

Edward, Wena, and Junior help me with some cleaning and heavy lifting!

We painted the wall...

and then Isako and I painted the bookshelves. Now we just need books!

See you all in about a week! Katie
