How's the Summer Going??

Hey there everyone!!  Hope we're all having a terrific summer - and reading!  I know I have been--lots of traveling, day trips, parks and keeping up with the little fella!

Anyway, just wanted to say hi---hope you're making the most of the summer....it's going fast!!

(Oh, and enjoy the video below - filmed in a large city, and never stopped the camera!!)

To all.....

I always have this surreal feeling on the last day of school - its usually more of a "Nah, it's not real...we'll be back on Monday" feeling.  But, alas, there I sat, talking about how "It's already March..." and "It's already April..." and so on.  Well, it's already June 23, and your days at Elmer Ave. are over.  I hope you had a terrific year, weathered the ups and downs, and feel like you are all better members of society after this year.  I hope you all take some of the things I said seriously - I'm not that old :-)

Anyways, please stop by soon....feel free to email or check the website.  I love hearing and SEEING my old students, so my door is always open, if you need to say hello, ask a question, or need some advice, please stop by Room 302.

And in the meantime, enjoy the slideshow below:
(Its not a great copy, for whatever reason...i'll work on that!)

Let's Remember WHY We Have Monday Off....

This Monday, the United States observed Memorial Day, a day to remember all of those who have died while serving in the United States Armed Forces.  I hope that during this year, while you have been watching CNN Student News and other current events, you have recognized how lucky we have it in this country.  People in other countries are willing to give their lives simply to try to gain some of the rights that many of us take for granted.

So, tomorrow, as you are out at a barbecue or other family gathering, please remember why we have the day off.  And, if you need some reminders, take a look below:

Happy Sunday to All....

Now, i know what some of you are thinking - he still checks here?  Well, I admit, with everything that happened with my Dad keeping me busy, I sort of neglected some things - here, included.  Well, that changes tonight!

Hope everyone had a good weekend - and managed to stay dry!  See you all tomorrow!

(Oh, and enjoy the video.  Amazing what you can accomplish with some cardboard boxes, small motors and cotton balls.  It sort of makes you lose focus!)
