Architecture of Eisenhower High School, Yakima County, WA state...

I dedicate this to my mom’s first day back as a Chemistry professor here.

This school was rebuilt and considered to be one of the most expensive school reconstruction projects in Yakima’s history totaling at a total cost of over $108 million in 2013.

“The Miracle of Moonlight,” Yakima County, WA

“At the end of the road through the wood I see the great moon rise. The fields are flooded with shine, And my soul with surmise.

What if that mystic orb With her shadowy beams, Should be the revealer at last Of my darkest dreams!”

---Bliss Carman

Have a blessed Christmas Eve, in hopes of a blessed Christmas day everyone!

“Invictus,” Yakima County, WA State

Poem from the inspiration of William Ernest Henley...

“Out of the night that covers me,      Black as the pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be      For my unconquerable soul. In the fell clutch of circumstance      I have not winced nor cried aloud. Under the bludgeonings of chance      My head is bloody, but unbowed. Beyond this place of wrath and tears      Looms but the Horror of the shade, And yet the menace of the years      Finds and shall find me unafraid. It matters not how strait the gate,      How charged with punishments the scroll, I am the master of my fate,      I am the captain of my soul.”

“Just Me while in WA state” ---May your spirits be truly bright!

“Children sleeping Snow is softly falling Dreams are calling Likes bells in the distance

We were dreamers Not so long ago But one by one We all had to grow up

When it seems the magic slipped away We find it all again on Christmas Day!”
