SNOWEDNESDAY!!!!

This year we are experiencing Sprinter!  And all classes were cancelled today. Wednesdays for my Area are usually 1/2 school days for the English School System. So at this point my youngest would be just arriving off the bus, and he would have missed the storm completely but I think that the School board would rather parents have a plan in advance for the later arrival students then have them stranded in school . The Storm according to The Weather Channel is calling for 5cm per hour when it does get there. So far it's just wind and flurries.

This mornings Picture at 1030 (I didn't have to get up school cancelled)

Chair Still MIA

And next up? The flurries you can't really see in this picture are starting everyonce in a while a gust blows the snow across the area behind the batting cage.

Yes the chair is under that bump.

So We'll settle in for Sprinter today and I'm sure every District Student will be Hoping and Wishing and praying for Tomorrow to be Cancelled Too? Follow my blog with Bloglovin

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

This is what had my Smiling yesterday. I had to save it to share for today. Yes that's a Party Hat on our Priest.  Irish Eyes Would be Smiling now wouldn't they?
