Lander, WY it is....

I was offered a job in Lander, WY yesterday, so it is official, my first real job. I will be teaching 7-8th grade at Starrett Junior High and quite passably the head volleyball coach for the 8th grade girls also. It is a great fit for me so we are excited. They have a younger staff, have tons of equipment, and will let me teach the way I want. Now we just have to find Steve a job!! We will be living here in Green River until the end of the summer so we can save money :) Anyways, it is exciting! WOO HOO!

Wow a teaching and coaching offer that sounds pretty fun. I wish we would have had someone nice like you coaching us when we were in Jr. High. Maybe then I wouldn't have been on the C team!!!!

Congratulations Ruth! I hope Steve also gets a teaching job, but yours just sounds perfect for you. :o) I've heard great things about Lander from the Larsens, the ones that used to be in your ward. I bet they would be a good housing resource.
