Back to School - Again

Well, it was back to school again today. We got a phone call from our school district about 9:30 pm on Thursday, telling us that school was cancelled on Friday due to flooding in some areas of the county. Grace had called the school district's emergency hotline less than an hour before to see if school was cancelled since the county's around us had cancelled and we were still scheduled to have school at that point. We had lots of rain and wind on Thursday and on Friday we had alternating times of heavy rain and wind and hours of overcast skies with the sun trying to peek through. By Saturday morning when Dad and I went out to Andy's house on the Turnpike, the road was dry for the most part with a few places where the shoulder was damp.

Back to School --- For 1 day!

Today it was back to work and school.....but now Tropical Storm/Hurricane Fay is giving us an extra day off - maybe two days off. We get to make up the day in October. So -- tonight we will be going out to Andy's to help him get stuff "Storm Safe" at their place and then they will probably come spend time at our house since it looks like the storm will be coming right by them. It has already started raining here. Lord willing, by the time hits land and gets near either of our homes it will just be rain and slight winds instead of strong winds.
