The Santa Fe - Grand Canyon trip added another amazing experience to my life: I witnessed snowfall for the first time. On my return from the Grand Canyon, I spent a night in the historic city of Flagstaff, where I was hosted by Craig and Kim Holland (an ex-brighter). It snowed for hours that night, and I enjoyed watching the snow accumulate through the transparent doors and windows while savoring some apple pie near a wood burner.
By dawn, I couldn't wait to jump outside and play in the snow. The scenery was picturesque all around me. I helped Craig wipe the snow off the car, made snowballs, and tossed them into the air. After warming up inside the house, I went back out to play and watched the snow gradually melt and pour down from the roof.
In contrast, on my way to Flagstaff from the Grand Canyon, I saw acres and acres of half-burnt trees that remained from last year's forest fire
I am Vamsi Krishna, a trained graduate teacher in Mathematics, currently working at Kendriya Vidyalaya in India. I am on a Fulbright assignment as an exchange teacher at Hill Side New Tech High School. I would like to share my experiences of teaching, traveling, exploring, and understanding the United States.
