but I spent the last 4 days of the Final Four matchup in Vegas, with a dear old friend and her husband. They live about 6 hours from me up here, and we rarely get together, so we spent some time catching up, as well as doing the Vegas thing, while her husband bet on basketball. 
She's a school teacher, and about 2 years from retirement. Another friend of hers went on vacation to The Galapagos Islands, and when she was on one of the islands noticed that there were no schools - lots of kids, but no schools. She came back home, fundraised until she had enough to start her own school, and my friend is going to go there to volunteer at this school, once she retires. I said, I'd go too.
It's still a few years away, but I'd really like to do this. Now that she's got grade schoolers enrolled full-time, the older kids are seeing what they missed, and she's trying to make room for them too. 
It's an opportunity, I never thought would present itself to me.
