School anyway...


The superintendent of schools decided that the kids should go to school today, even though it is STILL snowing!! But, there have been so many days off, that the school year is going to run really long into the summer to make up for all the snow days. The kids are not happy about that. We discussed it with our boys' teachers yesterday evening. They are rearranging their teaching curriculum, focusing on the boring 3-Rs now, so that they can do the fun science projects at the end of the year, in the hope that they can keep the students attention when the weather is nice and all the students are anxious to get outside to play...
The road where I took that picture this morning is Route 26, which is a major East/West highway, which is why it's fairly clear. The side roads, on the other hand, were a mess! I drove at a very slow rate of speed and even though my car has good tires, I still found myself slippin' and slidin'. Keeps you awake, right?!

I can't imagine having to drive in this, much less go to school!
