Makes for a long day though getting the next day off would definitely be a nice bonus!<br /><br />That's a fun sighting you had. Glad you had your camera with you to capture a shot of that bird.Susannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02757963698816530787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1409084936073021501.post-77029770792448388432015-02-20T20:04:21.159-05:002015-02-20T20:04:21.159-05:00Barbara - we only do it once a year, on Open House...Barbara - we only do it once a year, on Open House night.

Glad it came back on so quickly. The possibility of the power going off is something I always dread.<br /><br /><br />Glad Andrew made it back ok!<br /><br />I don't know if I'd like double school - is it just on Open House days? That would be worth it to have the next day off, as an occasional thing, but I don't think I'd like it regularly.Barbara H.http://barbarah.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1409084936073021501.post-41843678786179825362015-02-20T15:33:12.581-05:002015-02-20T15:33:12.581-05:00Glad you made it through the week ok with all the ...Glad you made it through the week ok with all the ice! We have bitter cold here...temps haven't gotten above 13 degrees all week! Your open house "double school" sounds like fun! We've been off here in eastern NYS all week due to Winter Recess. Our spring break is in April. We are praying the snow will be gone by then :)Faithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06608258814596465122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1409084936073021501.post-75851580727709983982015-02-20T15:22:01.460-05:002015-02-20T15:22:01.460-05:00I've never head of double school before, but I...I've never head of double school before, but I know I would have liked it in order to get the next day off. Plus how cool that the public can also attend the evening classes.<br /><br />How awesome to be able to see such a rare goose. And how fortunate you were to get a photo.<br /><br />What a lovely surprise to not have your heat out for days. I hope this coming week is warmer and filled with more "rare" surprises.Susanhttp://fruitfulwords.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1409084936073021501.post-6090069205555971742015-02-20T11:28:26.683-05:002015-02-20T11:28:26.683-05:00I saw on TV how the ice storm was in your area !
