About Me
- TGriffin
- I have been a language teacher (ESL/ELL, French) for 30 years. I have taught in public and private schools, immersion programs, refugee programs, adult/continuing education, elementary, middle, and high school as well as university. Currently I teach ELL at a high school somewhere in New England.
Unlike the others, I enjoy outdoor activitied than playing game or sleeping inside. I usually take a walk or play soccer with my friends, and since I've been here, I sometimes walk on the Union Street alone to enjoy the silence because I'm homestay so I have lots of chances. Back to my home, I used to ride a bike around my city and I didn't mind the noise of the city, and I enjoyed riding with my friends.

A favorite walk
Fall is coming. It’s my first time to spend the fall in Saco. To my surprise, the fall here is so beautiful that I can’t help putting down my homework and going outside to discover the beauty of the fall. On campus, some trees have turned fiery. I always feel quite relaxed when I walk on the golden leaves.
On weekends, I prefer to be close to nature rather than spend my free time indoors. On September 13th, I hiked with the Tabors. Mr. Tabor drove us to Mountain Major to hike. Although it was cloudy during our hike, I still enjoyed our hike very much for the reason that the air on the mountain was so fresh that I felt quite refreshed and relaxed when hiking. There was a small stream in the woods. The stream flowed with a merry gurgle. There was such clear water in the stream that Mrs. Tabor and I couldn’t help taking off our shoes and frolicking in the stream. Our clothes were almost wet! Additionally, there were wonderful sights on our way to the top of the mountain. Although all the trees were green, some trees were dark green, some trees were verdant, others were a bit yellowish. I even found a cute squirrel frolicking in a tree.
It was such a hard way to the top of the mountain that we all fell because of the rocks on the rugged path. However, we kept encouraging and helping each other when hiking. Finally, we reached the top of the mountain. The sight there was so beautiful that I couldn’t find any word to describe it. There were plenty of green islands in the middle of the immense lake. What’s more, I felt like that I could almost touch the clouds!
All in all, I enjoy the outdoors extremely not only because I can see wonderful sights and exercise my body but also because I can enjoy my relaxing time with my buddies. How I hope I can have more chances to go outside to discover the beauty of nature!
since a few days I noticed that the leaves have changed I found this wonderful specially in Maine we have some beautiful place in Saco . About In France , in Paris this is beautiful weather specially when you see a museum with all tree with a different color nothing is more beautiful in Paris . I used to walk on this season in Paris for the view .
ReplyDeleteEverything is changing and we are not acception. It is really beautiful outside. I enjoy walking around the campus with my headphones on. Music and colors of sky - is part of my life. I can sit for hours with big cup of hot tea and just looking at sky. Music helps to relax and concentrate at the same time, hot tea - keeps me warm. My thoughts could be different ,depends on my mood. Fresh air,sky ,music,colors,thoughts - is part of me.
ReplyDeleteIn this world I haven't met a lot of people ,who would have the same thoughts or the same character as I have.
The same I can say about friends.They are like sky; some of them are coming and leaving like clouds but some of them , like colors , keep leaving in your soul . And , maybe one day, you will be part of those colors together. But you should be carefull, if you add too much color or mix a lot , you can vanish and disappear from that beautiful painting.

ReplyDeleteI enjoy the outdoors. I will walk in the school by myself somethimes. When I walk alone I can feel something that is wonderful, although I wasn’t always outdoor in America, but i have outdoor in my hometown every twilight. There are a small forest in fornt of my home, I like go to there to have a outdoor walk after dinner.
Go to that small forest can relax my body. Let the flash air come in to body, it is the most comfortable things in this world, you can feel all the cells in your body, they move slowly, they breath averagely, they teach you how to discover this wonderful world. Everyone may get into trouble, everyone will lose themselves, everyone has been hate their life. But when you slow down yourself in this small forest, get some flash air, you will forget life’s stress and everything that may make you unhappy.
I like to have outdoor walk at some special place, this small forest hold a big part of my child’s memory. One thing that I remember was a adventure in a big bunch of mound. At that time i was a grade three students, that day our school end early for some reason, we had nothing to do, so about 5 of us was finding something fun, finally we decided to have a adventure in that big bunch of mound, that mound was make by a site( some people is building new houses there, and they “make” those big mound ). We just climbed up to those mound, cause the a rain the mound is wet, although it made us dirty but it is fun, we play on the top of those mounds, we run on the top of it and we play some games on it. Everythings is fun and safe until we hear a big shout form one of my friend call WangJin. He run too hard to caught into the mound. All of us at there feel nervous, cause we didn’t know what can we do, when Wang tried to move his leg out of the wet mound, his body would caught into the wet mound faster. “ let’s go ask some help” i shouted out, then everyone watched me, “WangJin stop move, we will help you to get some help” after i said this to WangJin, me and other two friends ran back to find some help. Normally we would find our parents and they would help him to get out of the mound, but at this time all our parents were working in their jobs.The fear control three of us at that time, we could do nothing to help our friend, we had not enough power to pull our friend out of that wet mound. “ I don't want to see my friend die in front of me! Death should far away from us with this age” during i was thinking about this, the hope come, we see our community policeman, we shouted “help!” to him, when he noticed us, we just hold his hand and ran to that big bunch wet mounds. Finally WangJin safe, and we never went to that big bunch mounds to play. But i never forget this things cause at that time i truly feel nervous. But everytime when I see that big bunch mounds I remember my childhood, when I think about the nervous at that time, I would laugh always. Cause that’s a true friend ship’s symbol.
I love to have some outdoor walk, cause that can show the realest myself.
The autumn is here with the fallen leaves. As the old saying goes, after dinner sit a while, after supper walk a mile. I really love outdoors, and I believe that walk can help me stay heathy. I used to have a favorite road in my hometown, it is near my house. This road is very beautiful, and it can lead me to the seaside. Now I am living in the dorm, but I have already found my favorite rode in Saco. This road is in my high school, I can walk this road through to Hannaford. I usually have a walk after dinner with my friend, then we can talk with each other about what happened in our school today. I love to get fresh air and enjoy the beautiful scenery. The yellow leaves on top will be issued click click sound, it is the sounds of autumn. It not only helps me to relax, but also makes our become closer.
ReplyDeleteThis is my third time to spend the fall in the Saco. You know I am a lazy girl, I always spend a lot of time with my home stay family. I like sleeping, playing the computer game, and listening the music at home. The most terrible thing is I really like to eat junk foods in the home. Foods makes me be fat, be heavy, so I think enjoy much time to outside is a good idea for me. Maybe I will walk on a road with lots of beautiful trees on it, and I will getting fresh air to seeing wonderful sights to exercising my body. It is good for my health. I believe I will have a wonderful time during the fall.
ReplyDeleteThe season already change ,autumn is here and leaves start falling . There is a path behind gym, I always walk with Gloria in the path after dinner . I enjoy outdoor , I like the voice when I trample on the fallen leaves . I can see the pine cone which is squirrels leftover , I can see the fallen leaves in the path , I can see some people are walking their dog . There still have some families have picnic on the glass even the weather become cold . Go outside can release my stress , I think everybody need go outside to take a rest . I enjoy seeing the yellow or red fallen leaves play with wind ,I like the special peaceful time . Put your smart phone down ,go outside to enjoy the autumn^_^
ReplyDeleteThis is my first fall in Saco. I never seen the leafs of the the trees of differents colors. Where I live the trees are green , brown and without leafs. It is so beautiful and I like to walk in the street while this season. I am enjoying all this. Also I haven't touch the snow either.
ReplyDeleteIt is October now, and autumn is coming. The north-east and Canada’s autumn are very famous because of the golden yellow leaves one the ground and fruitful foods, different with the south of China, there is no bleak atmosphere here. Although I didn’t live here through all autumn here, I know its gorgeous, dazzling, spectacular and nobody can copy its beautiful. I have attended one time 5 kilometer’s walk, just beside the TA. That time, the leaves were not all turns to yellow or orange, half of it was green. But the view was very beautiful also. Without a doubt, I love outdoor actives and enjoy them very often. In China, I don’t have enough time to have a walk every week but I always have it twice a month.
ReplyDeleteThe leaves were changing color during the weather became colder and colder. I noticed that there was a tree looked like fire, which was located at front of the Stasio Hall. I took walk in the woods, which were located behind TA.I was walking there with Vivian out of nothing to do and once was walking though there with Alita to the Hannaford Market. Both twice I was walking in the woods at dusk and the weather was windy. The fallen leaves covered the old railway tracks. It was quiet in the woods and did rustle slightly as we walked. Because it was at dusk, the deep in the woods was pitch-dark and strange. The leaves mostly were red or yellow and looked like a painting. I enjoy staying outdoors if the weather is not heat. I like walking in the woods when the weather is cloudy or windy. At home my favorite roads with trees were at my middle school. When I was a boarding student, I like the road with cinnamon trees in front of the dorm. Especially was in autumn while the cinnamons were in full bloom. After I became a day student and didn't live in the dorm any more, my favorite street was the one in front of the school gate. The street was full of pine trees and remained green throughout the years. But be honest, I prefer spending time indoors to do some reading or painting. I don't stay outdoors often if it is not necessary.
ReplyDeleteSometimes I play the basketball and take the dog to walk after dinner but just around my home. I saw some leaves fall or change the color to yellow. I also think dark come earlier and temperature become colder. This is my first fall in Maine. I think there has a big difference between the season because Maine is really cold. There is really quiet on the road in front of my home. That's my most favorite.
ReplyDeleteI drew the curtain in the morning,and found something flashing on the ground.I put on my coat and wanted to take a walk on the path which is in the forest behind school.
ReplyDeleteIt's my fist time to live in Saco and Northern region.Here is really different from Guangdong.Tresses in Guangdong are always green all the year,I never see the maples in Guangdong.Green maple tree leaves turn to golden.They just like lots of little stars.Some leaves were chasing the cool wind,some leaves were covering the path,the other leaves were flashing on the trees.I walked on a quiet path,saw the beautiful maple trees and the new place,which is different and far from Guangdong.I remember that my dog likes to lying under the shade,we always have a picnic on the grass.If they were here,my dog must like to running on these fall leaves.It's warm in fall and winter in Guangdong.It's a little boring in winter,people just have the same activities in summer.It will snow in winter in Saco.It will be much fun.We can ski and make a snowman!
I prefer outdoor activities because I enjoy fresh air and sunshine. Last month, my friend and I rode two bikes on the Eastern Trail Street, which is so beautiful! Some golden and green leaves fell on both sides of the road.we in the quiet roads, and we couldn't help stopping to listen to the sound of wind blowing leaves. There is a fragrant scent to us. We felt relaxed there.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was walking on the road, I found that the leaves change their color. Actually I prefer walk outside than watch TV show on bed. Sometimes I took some pictures and shared with my family.
ReplyDeleteI think walk outside and breathe the fresh air make me feel very comfortable.
I have dust allergies, so when I was in China basically I can't go out during the day. I usually go out at night, and rarely walk outside.
I super like Maine’s weather. In the winter we have snow and everywhere is colorful in the autumn.
When the weather is good I really want to stay outside all day. This is also a reason why I choose to the school in Maine.
I feel good when I find autumn is coming. The leaves changed color, they become yellow and red,they look so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI think the most comfortable thing is taking a walk after dinner. As a matter of fact I exactly do it. I like doing some outdoor activities. Such as basketball, riding a bike and taking a walk. That makes me feel relaxed. I can enjoy my life.
Usually, I take a walk around our house with my camera. I can take some photos about the autumn in Saco, then I share them with my friends and family. I like autumn I thank autumn is the best season in a year.
Of course I like go outside.I always like play sports with my friends in outside,and in outside have fresh air and beautiful sky. If I have free time I also like take a walk in outside autumn is coming, every tree is change to red, it's amazing. This season squirrel will be busy, So when I go outside i can saw some squirrel. This one reason why I go outside in this season.

ReplyDeleteYes, I do notice the leaves are turning the color. It makes the trees more colorful and beautiful. The leaves give their whole life to make the air more fresh without take anything. They are not pretty as the violets. Just like most of time people do notice what kind of this flower is, but they never notice what kind of leaf is. Finally, people notice them when they are dying. They live normally, but they died colorfully. My mom told me that I am the most energy boy in the world she've ever seen, because It is so hard to make me calm or sat a place quite without doing anything. I like playing ping pong and basketball a lot, and I nearly play basketball outside everyday now. I have plenty of time to exercise, because I can down most of homework in the after school study hall. There is a pretty nice route behind my house, and there are great number of trees here. Some leaves are turning red, some leaves are turning yellow. I usually take a walk before the dinner or after. I closed my eyes felt the wind blowed to me and had a deep breath while I was walking on the route. It makes me calm down to think what happened today and how can I do better in the future. All in all, I love walking on the route and seeing the colorful leaves.
DeleteI don't like any sports except ride a horse. I enjoy riding a horse quite fast, I do love speed, sometimes I almost gonna fall from it, therefore, my parents didn't allow me to go to equestrian farm for a long distance. Autumn is coming, it is a little bit cold, so I prefer stay indoor. I used to neither stay at home nor do sports on weekends. But I like walking by myself, because I don't think it is a sport, I think it is a good way to relax, maybe I am a kind of weird. I always walk from our dorm to Rite Aid and Starbucks, yeah,I guess that's all.
ReplyDeleteThe autumn is already coming,and my favorite season is autumn.It is not very hot and not very cold the air temperature is very comfortable. I also like go outside and breathe fresh air
ReplyDeleteit is better than stay inside.I often walk around the campus and see lots of trees haved turned
color , most leaves are yellow it's very beautiful leaves cover ground if you look from a distance
the ground looks like a big golden carpet. Feeling cool wind and walk on the alley I think it is a very good thing to do. I like autumn.
Since I have football practice everyday, from August to now, I actually witnessed the whole process of the leaves's color changing, it's so beautiful right now. I actually like summer better, and autumn is the sign that telling everyone it's start getting cold! and I'm from south of China, so I prefer hot weather. There do have a beautiful walkway on the school, one of my friend from cross county team told me, because they always do the running there. Now there is all leaves, it feels so comfortable to walk on that road.
ReplyDeleteAutumn is already here , the trees have changed color , most orange. I love the color of the trees.
ReplyDeleteI like being outdoors and while not everything in the home . Here you do not know any nice place to stroll . But there are many in madrid. For me the most beautiful is one that is in the Sierra de Madrid
In my hometown, they have a big mountain. It has beautiful view and fresh air. It is so close from my house, so I can go there anytime and easily. The mountain's color change every seasons. On the spring time, the whole parts of mountain cover by flowers. It is spectacular scenery. At this season, many people visit that mountain to see followers. In summer, the leaves become green and thick. The mountain is very nice place to avoid the summer's hot weather. As time goes by, leaves change to red, yellow and brown. If I follow a trail, I can see trees which have many colors. They are so colorful. Also the leave's shape are all different. sometimes I collected pretty shape leaves and keep in the book. Anyway, I love to walk on the boardwalk in the mountain. When I go there, I can get fresh air and relax. I often go there with my family and have family time. Usually I stay in home when I am free because I am too lazy to go out. But someone ask me to go the mountain, I never refuse.
ReplyDeleteIf i have more time then i would love to take a walk on the street behind the dorm. Unfortunately, after a long school day all i want to do is sleep and play games. I always need more sleep in the school year. Back home, it's different. I don't have to worry about all these HW, quizze and tests, so I often go bicycling near my house. It's sad that Ha Noi doesn't have any nice place for a walk or bucycling.
ReplyDeleteThis was a wonderful scene that never have in tropical countries like mine. When I talk about the yellow or red leaves appear everywhere, my friends asked me to take a picture about that. Therefore; I decided to walk around and take some picture about the trees in the fall. It was a different felling that really hard to describe when you walk under the trees which leaves is falling in the afternoon. It make the school is full of yellow and red. In somehow, it make me fell very peacefull when walking in this
ReplyDeleteThe autumn in Saco is really beautiful. When I walk out the dorm, i noticed a lot of maple leaf on the ground, that is really beautiful. Actually I do not like stay inside. I like go outside with friends. Like cinema, restaurant and gym. In china, I always go some beautiful parks with my mother. So i think go outdoors is better than go indoors.
ReplyDeleteWalking for me means a lot. everytime I am sad or depressed I take a walk to my favorite place in my city. It is a very big park. There is a lake and I always walk around it. The best thing about it is that I can see the moon and stars. But here I don't really walk a lot because I always have something to do or I am with my friends. But I have been to the forest twice. It was relly nice. I went there in the evening about a month ago so it wasn't cold. The nature is different than in Mexico so it was a really good experience for me. The good thing about Saco is that I can also see the Moon and stars. I hope I'll go there many times in future!
ReplyDeleteTwo weeks ago, I came to a very old museum as a volunteer. When I crossed the mountain road by ancient train, I saw a lot of maple trees around the mountain. And I have noticed that the leaves have turned color, especially maple leaves color from green to red.
ReplyDeleteI am enjoy going outside. After dinner, I always walk on the playground. Walking can help me get fresh air and digest foods. And last week, I discovered many maple trees near the playground and maple leaves color turned to red too.
I'm a indoor person, is been for a long time didn't touch the nature, it is a Sunday morning the sunlight came into my room，and there is a person playing LOL he move his right hand really fast, and the left hand type the keyboard very hard, he is concentration on it, and looks serious，just like he is doing the SAT test. Then he suddenly jump up and smile, as you can see he won the game. Yep that's me I like to play LOL in my after study life. I tried to bicycle with my home stay, but I don't like it, I like LOL.

ReplyDeleteFor seeing the beautiful leaves, I would go outside rather than stay inside. I really wanna collect them if they fell. And it's just so much fun. XDD. I did several walking with Gloria. We were playing the music out of loud while we were chatting. To self-reflect while nobody was bothering me just made me so glad. Seriously, people should do more walking tho.

I like outdoors but I am not interested at walking alone,sometimes I do walk with the silence at night back to my country because I feel comfortable about the silence and I also like to think about my future while I am walking.At here,I prefer to play a sports with my friends.Generally,I walk to Koi with several people at weekend and enjoy the food there,those kinds of walking is enjoyable,we chat with each other,discuss about study,video games,sports even talk about future.To be honest,walking is good but I'm not the one walks a lot,but I do love outdoors!
ReplyDeleteI have to say that saco is a really beautiful place. There is very quiet, unlike those busy cities. In saco, you may can't discover the flourish of a country, but what you can see is nature and peaceful. Saco is just like the corner of the world, and in there you will feel that nature is in everywhere.
ReplyDeleteActually in my country I enjoy the time which stay at home, but when I come to saco, my opinion is changed by the scenery of there. This saturday I will go to an island with my host family and roommate, and we will probably live on that island one day. In there we can go fishing on boats, and after that we may cook those fish for lunch and dinner. Our host family had a wood house on that island, but the house doesn't have power, so at night we probably need to build a bonfire. That will be very interesting experience for me.
Nowadays more and more schools encourage their students to take part in after-class activities. As everyone knows, just like study in class, after-class activities play an important role in the growth of the students.
ReplyDeleteAfter school, I will take part in some after-class activities such as play basketball and go running and so forth. In my opinion, after-class activities can help us to study more effective. And a wide variety of after-class activities is a necessary complement to classroom study. So we should learn how to combine the learning in the classroom and the extracurricular activities.
Autumn is my favorite season, I am in the dorm soccer team now, I play soccer one and half hour every day. The weather in autumn is pretty cool, is not like summer, make me sweat a lot, either like winter so cold outside that makes me don't want to go anywhere. So I enjoy autumn, and do autumn activities.
ReplyDeleteYes, I do love outdoors. A walk with a beautiful weather always makes me feel good. Last weekend I went to NH for a mountain climbing with friends. And I really like it! At first I thought it would be tough. But finally we all made it! And we took a lot of beautiful pictures. And the weather was as gorgeous as those golden leaves. And I have taken one leave to home with me:) Although there was lots of sweat there was also lots of laughter. So it was a really nice experience to remember!
ReplyDeleteWho is Chocoholic1998?
DeleteI think walking is a good activity but I usually don't walk. I walked to downtown sometimes because there are many stores. I can see trees in school change color. The leaves are red and yellow. I like fall, the weather is cool and leaves are beautiful. It is good to walk in fall and see trees. I think like outdoor. When I'm at home, I walk with my mum, she walks every morning. There is a big park near our house. My mum says walking is very good for health. I enjoy time to walk with my mum. I don't know some good place to walk in Saco. I like to walk in the park in my hometown.
ReplyDeleteYes,I do enjoy outdoor walking due to the flowing reasons.
ReplyDeleteFirst thing first,if I stay indoor for a long time,I will feel comfortable,it lets me feel I’m lack of energy.So,I always go outdoor and take a walk after a long indoor time in order to relax myself and breath some fresh air.And the walking gives me a lot of energy which helps me complete those homework or the missions in my video game fast and accurately.
Secondly,I can also enjoy some fantastic scenery during the walking.For instance,when I was in China.There was a mountain park nearby my home.And the landscape on the mountain that I could see is the whole city.It was so great that I often went there with my parent on weekend.Therefore I was able to refresh myself by walking on the mountain and enjoy the landscape of the city.It was a good place,and I miss there so much.
In the end,I enjoy outdoor walking and I will keep finding some new place to walk nearby the school.Then enjoy it.
Thanks, everyone, for your comments on walking outdoors. Even for you indoor-types, I think if you take the time to walk outside a couple of times a week, alone or with friends, you'll discover how fun it is. Happy walking!
ReplyDeleteI love the autumn in the Maine. The leaves of maple change the colour from green to the yellow and orange. It’s perfect colour for me. And the weather during the autumn is awesome too. Not cold and not hot. I afraid the winter in the Maine. It’s real crazy season for me, so the autumn is wonderful season to spend the time outdoors. I like walking outside after dinner with my friends. We love the road in the back of the amato to the starbuck, clean air nice tree. WOW, life is beautiful. I walked after dinner with my family too, When I came to USA, but Chinese air is not wonderful. That’s regretful.

ReplyDeleteI like walking outside by myself when I feel sad or uncomfortable, and I like that feeling, especially at that time, I think I met my first challenge right now. Because of some reasons, I can’t pay my attention on my school courses and sports, so my grades are not good like last year. I think I just feel impetuous and nervous right now, I am not me.
ReplyDeleteWalking outside and watch some beautiful viewing are good for relaxing myself, I usually do these thing, and I can begin a cheerful day after walking!
Autumn is not my favourite weather, but the autumn in Maine is really beautiful. The leaves drop out to the floor turned to yellow or red. When I was walked around to the school. I found out that was really beautiful, I don't like stay at the dorm all day long especoally like this beautiful weather. Actually, I also like the weather at Autumn, not very cold or warm.eaves come down in autumn,and red maple windward.Farmers are working hard in the farms for the harvest with delight.I enjoy myself walking aroud the golden country field.
ReplyDeleteI love autumn!
I don´t really like Autumn because I am allergic to the pollen so I don´t like going outside because I spend all the time sneezing so in Autumn I always avoid being outside and more if it is windy. I don´t know pleace of where I could take a walk however I know a lot of places where I can go for taking a walk in my city.
ReplyDeleteI like to walk along the streets in autumn while leaves turning yellow even red .
ReplyDeleteWind going by with smell of grass, and air in autumn is especially clean. White clouds
are high in sky against light blue sky. Everything is covered with golden in twilight.
I am enjoying going to outdoor to play basketball or walk with my friend. I like Saco, I could stay outside all day, and I do not have to stay at home and play video games all day. But I still like to go some where to hang out with my friend in china. Like around the basketball court, Di Tan park or the mall. Those place are not that funny. But they make me relaxed.
ReplyDeleteIt's true that I like so much play video games with my friends, but also we like go for a walk. Is funny go stepping the leaves, but you never know what could be under its (imagine you step on a dog poop). Also, I like go for a walk alone, because I catch my headphones and while I listen music, I can see a beautiful landscape and think on my stuff.
ReplyDeleteDuring this autumn I start change my lifestyle. I start walking after school and enjoying the nice autumn view. I'm shaked by American beautiful autumn environment. I always can see seagull and squirrel in our school . They're pretty and lovely! I love them!
ReplyDeleteYes I like outdoors because there is more space than indoors and it's always more fun because you can always find something to do. I haven't found an interesting walk since I got here. At home I enjoy walking around my neighborhood with my dog and dad because it's always fun and there is a nice breeze.
