Aqua pura

ABOUT ME

I Live and Love Lake Minnetonka. I teach and coach in the local school district during the cold months, and lead an environmental institute for elementary students during the warm ones. I completely disagree with the concept of daylight saving time and can't stand it when people do not use their blinkers. I am currently living and working at Minnetonka Middle School in Minnesota. Expanding minds, including my own, enjoying the lake, whether it is frozen or not.
