Highway Rest Stop takes a rest

Hello English 9 people... our class is done, and I'm taking a break from teaching English for a while, so... thanks for being a part of the blog activities this year and good luck in you future (English) classes as you continue to read, write, study, reflect, create, express, and understand.
