The last couple of weeks I've been working 12-14
hours every day to get everything done. I beat my
old record in October, and it looks like when the
month ends tomorrow night, I'll have 138 hours logged.
I've just passed 900 hours total, so my hours are
building up fast.
We went to a football game last night to see the
Naples Golden Eagles beat Gulf Coast. I'm truly
facinated by the enthusiasm and energy Americans
put into their schools. Even though the game was
at the high school level, the stadium was full,
the quality of the game was high and there was a
huge show with a huge band and a bunch of dancers
and cheerleaders. Apparently this happens every
week. When I think back on my time as a soccerplayer
in Norway, we were lucky if only our coach showed
up when we played away. Here the visitors section
was almost full, and the visitors brought a huge
marchingband with dancers and everything.
We had a going away party for Ivar last Sunday
which was lots of fun. He left the school a couple
of weeks ago to go back to The Netherlands. There's
3 new instructors starting up in November.
Election on Tuesday... lets see if the Americans
can have a fair election this year, in the spirit
of the critisism of dictators around the world ;)

Naples Golden Eagles won 35-0 over
Gulf Coast. That's 5 touchdowns.
Gulf Coast's half time show was displayed
after the game, as they spent the break to
announce the homecoming queen!
