Chris's Story
I've been back in the Four Corners area for 13 years now. I've been teaching at Aztec High School for 12 years, and currently have the pleasure of teaching World History and Geography.

My greatest escapes these days tend to be in books and the occassional trip to Vegas.
I'm not sure why, but recently I've been thinking a lot about Durango and the people I used to know. It would be nice to reconnect with some of my old friends.
Will there be a 25 year reunion??
