Taay Taay's AVTEC Tour, 11/29/07

Taay Taay has been a little lost since graduating but thinking a bit about going to AVTEC, a trade school in Seward, Alaska (2 hours South of Anchorage). So we made it our goal that during his visit we would drive down and check it out. Taay has been thinking carpentry and construction (it's what his father did) so we were given the tour of that program. We were also able to meet up with a friend of John's (Taay's) from Gambell who is in the construction program right now (Troy). Troy and Taay were able to hang out for about 5 hours on campus. After the visit Taay Taay said to me "It's not like I want to go to AVTEC anymore, it's like I JUST HAVE TO GO". I was sooo happy to hear him say that, a total answer to my prayers for him (just prayed for him to find a positive path)...On the way home we were able to have a awesome heart to heart convorsation about life in general...all around, It was a GREAT trip!! Taay has to start getting his paper work in in Feburary and will start the construction program in August. It is a 9 month program and after his graduation they will assist him in getting a job.
