Welcome!

Hey Everybody! Hope you are all enjoying your summer so far. Welcome to your blog.

This is a community blog for the Park School Class of 2008. All of you are welcome to post on it. Share whatever strikes your fancy: thoughts on places you've been, movies you've seen, books you've read, music you've heard...anything suitable for a group audience (no flames-nasty comments-please). The blog is meant as a means for us to stay in touch with each other, so please, post away! (BTW: I only invited 29 people to join this blog because that's how many email addresses I had. If you have email addresses that I don't, please forward them to me. Some of the addresses I'm missing include: Nathaniel, Max, Izzy, Jake & Quinn).

About the title: Since this blog will be about your lives after elementary school I wanted to include the word "road" in the title. That's because in books, movies and music, the road is often used as a metaphor for life. There's even a whole genre of movies called "road pictures". The road is usually used to represent the choices one makes or the events one experiences on one's journey through life and how those choices impact the way one's life turns out. For you guys some of the most obvious movie examples are "A Bug's Life", "Finding Nemo", "The Lord of the Rings" and "The Wizard of Oz". This blog then, will be about the roads we choose to follow and where they take us in the future.
