The Big Reunion....


Wow, we had a great Labor Day weekend at the River Ranch Girl Scout Camp at Carnation, Washington. The weather was mostly lovely, the food incredible, and the company was outstanding.
(This is my boss at the staff meeting. Sorry Warren, I could not resist.)


It's so nice to meet the office legends and put a face to the people I've exchanged e-mails or phone conversations with!
Listening to Jon Young, Jake Swamp and Paul Raphael speak was inspiring. I've always known that what we do here is important, but now I understand that it's WAY bigger than I realized.
It's really cool to hear how the school got started from those who were there, and also really cool to see how far it's come.
"Coyote's Guide", our book that lays out the teaching method we use here is coming out in a few days! I expect that it's going to be a big thing. Look for more info shortly on that.
