I experienced my first chanoyu tea ceremony (茶の湯) yesterday, hosted by Chaboshu, the men's tea ceremony school in Seattle. Beautiful!

Now that I have an ID card and email address, I'll make it official. I was offered and accepted an adjunct position at Green River College in Auburn, WA. One or two classes in the fall semester and possibly more in the spring, depending on enrollment.
