Waiting

I'm waiting, and not doing an particularly good job of it. It's frustrating to really want a particular job and not really hear word of whether or not your belief that you had an excellent interview and may well be chosen for your dream job. Unfortunately, stuff in the educational field seems to slow to a winter's molasses pace. And a corporation doesn't want to pay you to train until it's the very last day possible to get the job done. So you wait.

The pic is a snowy owl at the NW Trek near Eatonville, WA. It's a wild game reserve with a large area for elk, deer, bison, sand hill cranes, and woodlands caribou to roam freely. An hour tram ride takes you through the park, a donated piece of land by a couple who still lives there on the property. A walking path takes visitors to large enclosures with a grizzly bear, black bears, wolves, lynx, bobcat, cougar, beaver, fisher, owls, eagles, and a few other animals. On a Saturday, it's quite busy. It's probably a more relaxing day during a cool fall day during the week.
