Nothing can be as freeing, exciting, and risky as touring on bikes. The freedom to pedal our way across miles and miles of roads or trails can bring such pleasure and pain. The joy of the open road on a bike tour is one of the greatest adventures in the world. Touring on bikes creates a need to prepare ourselves, our bikes, our gear, and our food/water. A successful bike tour is a result of great planning, hard biking, and good old-fashioned luck.

Drone Essential Knowledge and Skills (DEKS) is about helping students go from general awareness of drones to flying safely as part of a team, then earning the FAA Part 107 commercial license, and starting their own drone business. Drones are becoming more relevant and pervasive in our schools and society. DEKS are designed to scaffold students through knowledge of drones, safety and responsible usage, technical knowledge, and skills to become a commercial drone operator, intern with a drone business, then build their own drone business in their local community.

No one teaches us how to grow old. It just happens. Sometimes quickly, like with an illness or injury. Then, we feel our age quickly.

The joy or sadness of growing old usually rests with our perception and expectations.
