We arrived in Lincoln last night after two easy days of driving from Effingham, IL. Â The weather the last two days has been great – temps in the 50’s – in the middle of February! Â Tomorrow it’s going to get cold!!
We spent today working with two groups of students at the Seward High School with an immersion program sponsored by Time Warner Cable and the Lied Center. Â Both groups were great fun – talented students who were quick learners. Â Some of them even managed to take their new-found knowledge and create a couple of magic tricks of their own! Â The Time Warner Cable cameras were there to capture the event.
It was a fantastic way to spend our afternoon. Â And the really cool thing is these students will be attending our show on Friday night at the Lied Center. Â Meeting them today will make the show more “personal” on Friday.
Tomorrow, Ethan and I have a full day ahead of us. Â We start around 9:15am when Megan picks us up and we head over to Yankee HIll School. Â We’ll be working with students there for about 90 minutes. Â Quick lunch break and then we head to Dawes Middle School to spend the afternoon working with a selected group of students.
We’ll be joined in the afternoon at Dawes Middle School by the camera of Time Warner, the local CBS affiliate, and a reporter from the Lincoln Journal. Â Tomorrow is definitely “media day” in Lincoln.
I’ve still got tons of email to answer and some Facebook things to do!
