Many days away, some planned, some not. Let's catch up.
School was closed on Friday, Nov. 9, due to the smoky poor air quality. Monday Nov. 12 was a scheduled school holiday, Veteran's Day. Unfortunately, schools were closed again on Tuesday., Nov 13, because of the poor air quality.
Upon our return, we will catch up with everything, so no worries. It will be great to be back!
Stay safe and well.
