Didn't end up in Maine, eh? I could have looked you up next month.

Sounds too much like work to me, but just right for you. I think you'll
make a great teacher, with students lucky to
have you.

I was accepted in the program in Maine and just aas that occurred two of
the instructors I had wanted to study with left the program which was a game
changer for me. It is still a good program and the changes had me look
elsewhere.
Doors close, doors open.
I was aware of a program at Texas A&M Corpus Christi, which would require
me to be in residence and take about 3 years to complete. It also would
put me in an environment where I would be establishing valuable contacts
within the Texas college & university community. Three or four nights a week
in
Corpus and the balance at home. Eight to ten weeks off each year. A
possibility of teaching while I'm there. That seemed like a workable deal. I
made application and was accepted.
Thank you for your kind words. I've taught a leisure learning type of
beginning photography, which really was enjoyable. I look forward to teaching
in the future.
