Enjoying living in Chanhassen near Lake Riley where I can see Blue Heron fishing in Riley Creek each spring morning as I drive to work at 6:00 AM. Work is Rosemount Middle School where I teach music to 6th, 7th and 8th graders. Having survived hundreds of concerts and student musicals, I’m hoping to survive a few more years of teaching. This summer I’m planning to tackle a new needlepoint project if my puppy will let me sit long enough.
