Your class sounds like a lot of wholesome "hard fun" and I encourage
you to keep sharing narrative accounts, as I often do when teaching
(I'm not doing any classes right now, trying to get back into cycling,
other healthy stuff -- just screen and keyboard takes a toll (not that
I'm giving up either (nor driving, per DMV blog post today))).
