Most of us have experienced strange events in our daily lives but we have learned to ignore them. This world is a varied and wondrous place...but some places...it seems that the world works a bit differently. A young college graduate is about to move to one of those vortexes of reality. No, this is not a Twilight Zone story...but the true story of a teacher's first year in education in a small town that definitely does things its own way.Many will think these stories are made up...if they are, the author is much more creative than most give him credit for. The reality is that in one year, this teacher confronted at least two attempts on his life, an assortment of strange characters that could populate many science fiction novels, a giant fish that played a game with him and much more. Most importantly...he discovered who he was and the difference he could make in the lives of students that the rest of the world seems to have given up on.This is a story that is a mix between Mr. Holland's Opus and Forest Gump. You won't believe the things that can happen when you open your eyes and really look at the world around you...especially the things most choose not to see. The stories written here are told in a way that makes you think the author is next to you telling it personally. The warmth, humor and strangeness of that first year that changed a young man's life comes out in an easy to read and enjoyable manner. Enjoy the ride.
