Some days are like that …

Some days are like that – busy. Last Friday for example which – in addition to all the usual activity – also included a middle school science symposium, a high school Art Show, a Poetry Reading and a play.

In fact – the whole week was like that – delightfully packed with events, performances, games, productions, performances, presentations, field trips, weather reports in Spanish, exhibitions, farewells, an eagle’s nest, examinations, meetings, visits, visitors and surprises.

And you can’t capture them all – but here are a few.
