Day 136 – The school district and the teachers’ union could not reach a tentative agreement last night. Classes are cancelled today although more negotiation meetings are scheduled for this afternoon. I wonder what lessons will be learned from this experience?

Day 128 – Warm spring wind gusts took our kite pretty high up. It took a wild ride up there until it crashed into the lilac bush.

 

Democracy

Democracy

Day 127 – “Let us never forget that government is ourselves and not an alien power over us. The ultimate rulers of our democracy are not a President and senators and congressmen and government officials, but the voters of this country.” – FDR

Happy Pi Day!

Happy Pi Day!

Day 121 – Pi written out to 100 places on our driveway. Yes, the neighbors do think I am weird. But who cares! It’s a gorgeous day and this is my favorite non-holiday holiday.

Day 115 – I tried using a new background technique for this photo. My “nephew” Jonah loves Thomas the Train and he has a birthday coming up soon so this is for him.
