It Feels Like a Fair Night

You know the feeling. The county fair is going in town.. you go without a coat, or a jacket or even a sweater.

The warm night will keep you comfortable. We have had a couple of those nights recently. Air temperature is over 90 in the day... so lows in the high 60's and low 70's at night.

I remember a night at the Merced County Fair where Linzi and her friend got a photo next to the cardboard cut out of George "W". We got stuck with a bad alternator on the way home and had to call AAA. After a lengthy wait, the tow truck arrived and hauled us home from the shadow of the In and Out.

The citrus trees are really letting us know that Spring is hear. They take out your nose even in the middle of the night. This year they combine their smell with the delicate smell of the iris... wow.

You know that you are getting to the end of the school year when they talk about state tests. Next week is the scheducled time. We hope we do well. I am not sure that it will be good for the special ed students. They are the reason our district is a PI district. Our district is not one to play around with our populations and because of that they do not compare well with the districts that do "hide" there questionable populations.

It really works against your mainstreaming accomplishments. These students struggle all the time.

Hope all is going well for you!
