New purpose

The blog is getting busy again. I'm about to launch a new, LONG series on a biography of Richard Forrest Woods. Please enjoy. Bit by bit.

In four years, I'll retire from teaching. That is, if the market [mine] will bear it. This year, I'll hear auditions from students who will 'retire' from college at the same time I do. I'll need something to do in retirement. Broadway coaching? Bus driving for retirement communities? Funeral volunteering? Service playing? Truck driving school? Bicycling all over God's creation? Visiting all the National Parks? I'm all ears.

Happy New Year, dear Reader. It's going to be a ride.
