Most Interesting Job
Teaching high-school English at the Hawaii Baptist Academy in the 60's. I had very diverse students and was with one group of students for four years. We got to know each other very well; some of those students still stay in touch. We were in old, termite-ridden buildings with outside walkways (lanais). I remember more than once having one of my spike heels sink into or between the boards of the walkway.
