From North to South

Amy's ramblings. Once upon a time these ramblings pertained to my 5 months in Guatemala and Honduras. Then they followed the ebb and flow of my final semester in Alaska. From there things really went south ... to Argentina, Bolivia and Chile. After 8 months in the Andes, I fell back under Alaska's spell … working at a newspaper and wandering mountains. Now I'm somewhat south again ... in Jackson Hole, WY, teaching ski school on the clock and making fresh tracks off the clock.

Danish proverb

I just heated up some water to make myself tea before I go to bed...

And the saying on the tea bag -- you know how some fancier teas have quotes and words of wisdom written on the tag -- seemed, well, perfect.

It reads:

"He who would leap high must take a long run"

-Danish proverb (Good Earth white tea, vanilla blend)

I started my new job today as "associate editor" of the Alaska Star... and my thoughts are pretty well summed up by that Danish proverb... this is a "high leap" and one that will take "a long run"... but I'm excited for the trail ahead. I thrive on challenge, and if its a challenge that involves writing and publishing... even better!
