Returning To New York From my Travels

Hello from Long Island, New York where I have spent the last month since returing on my travels. I do want to say that I have returned with a full heart. To all of you whom I meet, spoke to, taught or shared a drink over lunch- A BIG THANK-YOU for giving me such a great expereince and I look forward to my return to teach in March and May, 2010!

My Fulbright experience was amazing and it is because of all of you out there in our Global community who embraced my philosophy, teaching and experiences.
I thought I would post a few pictures of where I am now and what I am watching and witnessing.

Back here in New York, the summer weather has been either hot and humid or cool and rainy or rainy and humid. But as I wondered around my town of Easthampton, I can across these images that I wanted to share with all of you who watch this blog. The photograph below is my squrrel, who visits me, in my backyard every day and watches me through my window, as I watch him.

I will be continuing to write on this blog about what I am writing and researching, so please keep visiting and have a great few last weeks of SUMMER fun!

Next post on dendrites and your brain-stay tuned!
