"Go West, young man, and grow up with the country." - Horace Greeley

Graduation out of the way, the time has come for me to grow up: time for a real job. So for the next two years I will be teaching math and coaching track on a reservation in South Dakota (I'm not sure which one yet--either Pine Ridge or Rosebud). For all my claims of Midwestern roots, I've grown up in suburbia on the East Coast. On this journey West I'll be leaving behind friends and family and entering an entirely new world--so I hope this blog will allow me to illustrate that world for everyone back East.

To prep myself for what comes next, here are some pictures of the area that I'll be living in.
