If you're watching without blinking, you can see it. It's bright green, and it is there. It's taken me a while to see it after so many sunsets. I've only heard of it happening on the ocean's horizon, sunset or sunrise.Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319624163132382197.post-18448170863826001992014-08-02T12:38:14.255-06:002014-08-02T12:38:14.255-06:00I'm curious, Linda.

It is a delight. Perhaps I will write a longer post about our interviewing. More than one has seemed to say it's different. Sometimes the students share some things we don't notice, so we do value their words very much. Or, sometimes we're all in agreement about a candidate. That's good, too.
