Monster Couch

French Tutoring

I am now tutoring a former student in French. It is great to be using French again.

Cram Korean Culture Class in Rhinelander

It was great to see Bragg Family South in Rhinelander! Also, it was nice to see April and David at the coffee shop.

Dad set up a nice little cultural exchange for Scott and I while I was in Rhinelander. A doctor from South Korea that Dad recently met took Scott and I out for coffee and filled us in a lot of useful cultural and language information about South Korea. It was very kind of her to help us. Thank you, Myung Sun and Dad.

Coming to Rhinelander Tomorrow

We are plenty busy! I've finished my regular teaching at St. Thomas, but I'm getting a bunch of subbing hours. Scott and I are still going to fit in a Rhinelander visit from Tuesday, tomorrow, until Thursday. We won't be around for this weekend at Mom and Dad's to see people, unfortunately. I am going to make a trip to Madison before I go, though, so I hope to be able to see folks down there. As soon as I can get a better picture of my schedule here over the next few weeks, I'll make plans to visit Madison. I would also like to get to Colfax one more time. Our remaining time in the States is filling up.

Another task that Scott and I have is upscaling our wardrobe. Korean schools require formal attire. We both need to buy some new stuff.

John and Jim's Twins Game Visit

I have some photos to share from John and Jim's recent visit to the Cities. They took up the train, stayed two nights, and took the fabulously cheap Megabus back to Madison.
