On our way home from the ISTE conference, we had the opportunity to drive through the California desert. The Mojave is something that is beautiful and mysterious at the same time. It’s interesting how we take for granted the vast differences that exist across the landscape of this country.

When we asked the kids what they thought of the desert, one said,” look to the left-desert, look to the right-desert. Big deal”. But it is a big deal, and it is one that I took for granted on taking this same trip when I was their age.
It’s interesting the things we come to appreciate with age.
