		<description><![CDATA[This is the first of two pieces of writing I am working on about my trip over spring break to BC, Canada; the other piece will be about the train ride up. I am experimenting with voices and styles, so they won't really be anything alike. Also, in news-of-my-life, the hectic spring hiring season has begun for teachers, so I may not get to it for a while. Since I don't own a camera, I've borrowed a few pictures from Wikipedia. Click on them. They link to the articles. <a href="http://scho.wordpress.com/2008/04/04/tourist/">[…]</a><img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=scho.wordpress.com&blog=1377274&post=61&subd=scho&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

While you're all invited, it is hard to imagine it is the kind of party that many people will want to come to. On the other hand, it is my party, and I can cry if… Sorry. That wasn't very original, but I enjoyed it anyway. <a href="http://scho.wordpress.com/2008/01/21/solo-act/">[…]</a><img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=scho.wordpress.com&blog=1377274&post=42&subd=scho&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
