T-Dawg’s Blog

This is where the “Writing Retreat” was held for the past three years. There won’t be one this year because we didn’t even break even on it last year. I’m going to miss sitting by the fire and writing with the other teachers. I’m going to miss the incredible meals we shared together downstairs at the long benches. I’m going to miss the evening camaraderie and my little bunk bed that I crawled into at night. Most of all, I’m going to miss this view. Maybe next year…

I’ve been a faithful reader of a blog by a teacher from California who is now in hot water (possibly) because of what he  writes on his blog. As much as I enjoy reading the rants and raves of other educators, I’m afraid to be that open on my own blog. Can we lose our jobs because we blog? He’s totally anonymous in his, yet he’s been “traced” and identified. I wish him well, and I will miss his honest writing.
