My visit in Maryland was also great. The 4.5 days I was there was not too rushed and I was able to spend good quality time with so many friends. I headed straight to Montgomery Mall and the first person I see is Sr. Dyer - we looked at each other and said "You don't live here" and then I said " You don't live here!" Small worlds! I also saw the Earenfights, Mary Power and then I had coordinated to meet with any of my students who wanted to meet. Thank you all for taking the time to come out and see me - means a lot!!!! It was great seeing you Lena, Morgan (&Lucy), Claire, Lea, Suzanne, McKinley (&Grant), Sophia (&Catherine&Jane) & Ari & Emmie AND parents! I love hearing about middle school and your other adventures.
On the other side of SR, the "girls" had such a lovely lunch out - we chatted so long, when I looked at my watch 3 hours had quickly slipped by. Sarah, Ninette, Kate and Courtney - thank you for being such terrific friends - I miss you as colleagues and as friends!
New Years Eve was also great - the regular "gang" got together for a low-key, good food - chilli and 'smores - relaxing evening at Dave and Shannon's. (We should have got a group photo!) Chris I will not post the photo of you as this is a G rated blog! But Kir & Geoff thanks for bringing the party favors and thanks Dave and Shannon for hosting it. Ralph - glad you could swing by. Chris - great to spend time with you!
Happy 2009 everyone!

Hi Jill! It was great to see you last month. You'll have to send me a copy of the pic so I can pass it along to the gang here. Miss you already!

Jill--It was so great to talk to you this afternoon. I loved hearing about your trials and adventures. I am really glad to hear you're adjusting and taking advantage of all Greece has to offer. I'm going on line now to look for flights. I really would LOVE to fly to Greece this summer to visit. I miss you a lot.
Love, SB
