I like being a student all day, coming to class and getting interesting things to think about. I've been thinking about mapping my own childhood backyard: with military forts in the woods, a garbage can parade route, a secret shed, a tree-house hotel, and a magical playground across the street.
I find myself noticing the small things in life this week...feeling more writing ideas. I hear a story in last night's thunderstorm, in my extra fiber pb and j sandwich, in my Thursday sleepiness.
Tonight, I hope I can read a whole Ron Rash novel. I'm excited about meeting him, and excited about being outside. My dream is to run a field trip school. Every kid should go on a field trip every friday!

You are not alone in noticing the little things. I've found myself noticing the minute details that make the backstory of everyone's lives. There is a school in Denver that is called an "experience" school. It is a charter school that one of the Tech Liasion's of the Denver Writing Project works at. I'll find the name so you can research it a bit.
