A Day Off

Eight other teachers and I went up to the Big City to see the musical Mary Poppins. I've just discovered that I don't know where the underline key is! Oh well. The play was great, the shopping was great (would have been even better if I'd actually had cash to spend!), and the food was great. We've only been in school for three weeks but we were all so ready for a day off.

The weather was fantastic, especially for this late in August. It could have passed for a late September day but what it really reminded me of was the weather we experienced in Long Beach, California when we'd go to visit my grandmother. Cool, but not too cool, with a breeze. If I closed my eyes and discounted the fact that there was no scent of the ocean, I could imagine myself sitting on the beach at sunset. *sigh* It was a really strong memory.
