Leaving not on a jet plane

and I know I will be back at the end of the day.  I am going on a field trip with Nevada and all the grade 3's from her school along with various parents and 3 teachers to the big city.  We are going to the  http://www.imax.com/vancouver/  then to http://vancouver.ca/parks/parks/stanley/index.htm  for  a picnic lunch.  I hope the links are click-able.

I would rather have travelled on the school bus as that is part of the fun but they didn't have enough money in the school funding to get enough buses so they are sitting the kids 3 a seat.  That speaks alot for our current government he is flying around on a private jet and we are sending 9 yrs olds down the freeway 3 to a seat with no seat-belts.  YOu don't want me to start on that subject.

Well hope everyone is enjoying their June we have had the most incredible weather here. I hope we aren't using up all of our sun days

  1. Have fun Carol.
    I know what you mean about the Govt & the funding for the schools.
    It's that way pretty much in the States too.
    I hope you all have a safe trip.

  3. Well we're back and managed to skirt two big accidents that tied up traffic on the freeway. Luckily no-one was hurt in either one just long delays...

  6. Hope you had fun, and I too, am glad that you and Nevada are back safe and sound. We've got problems with school funding here in the states too, so don't feel like a lone ranger. And, for the most part, we are not happy. Our prisons and our schools are in the same fund!!!! I don't understand that.
