petmoosieThe walk is ... refreshing. Or just very cold.
Emily is going to see a play at Adventure Theater as a field trip. I wonder what it is. "Peter Pan" is on stage fairly nearby, and we could go to see that also.
Our school system (Montgomery) is considering canceling classes for Inauguration day. DC has already done it. Prince George's (majority black) has already done it. And Alexandria and Arlington may have already done it. Now, DC should do it; many of their students (and teachers) use the Metro system to get to school and home again. Prince George's wants to acknowledge the first black president. I want Montgomery to do it, since we (my family) are going to the Inauguration. But if Montgomery doesn't, I'll write the note for an absence. What would be bad, is if all the white students left school, and only the black and the Hispanic students went to school (because their parents couldn't get off from work). It couldn't be done as a field trip, because there aren't enough buses (in the world) to get all the high school students, middle school students and elementary school students there. Plus, it really makes much more sense to take the Metro.
