Hello From Big Orange Country............

Hello from Tn.....
This is my first experience with blogging so here we go....
They call me Coach Tee here but all that gets to know me can just call me Tee. I am coming back to Alaska after being there for the first time in March. Unlike most of you I have been out of school since May 24th.
I like another person coming to the conference am excited about coming to Alaska. It is a captaivating place. In fact I am so excited I have all but completed packing. Can't wait to stay with the dogs .
Can't wait to meet all attendees....

Hi Tee. We get out early down here in Florida, as well...our last day for students was May 18. We're adjusting our schedule next year, however, to get on track with the rest of the world.
We're you in Alaska in March to attend the Iditarod.

Go Gators!

Hi Rick,
I did go for the Iditarod and then stayed for another week. It was a family trip. On the trip I also got to ride a train from Fairbanks back to Anchorage. It was all awesome. Can't wait to meet everyone and find out where everyone is from.
I am a huge Vol fan are you a huge Gator fan? My husband is a Bama man. We love SEC football.
See ya at the conference.
Tee

Yeah, I'm a Gator -- I went to school at UF -- but probably not as devout a fan as most. Of course, it was hard for me not to get excited about the football and basketball teams this year.
I've looked at that train trip briefly on the Internet, wondering if I could squeeze it in during the week. Sounds like I should look into it again. I'd also like to take that airplane tour that flies over Denali.
