Linda, they Make the kids all take one then force insurance on them. CBs got the screen broke last yr. and they didnt get insurance so after a few phone calls including SIL cussing principal out. (principal told me this himself) They have taken DD to court for the repair money. SIL argument was he offered and could of gotten it fixed cheaper then what the school wanted.
 
Ugh. Found a message on my phone from the cross country coach. There is a meet on Wed in Point Arena, up along the coast, and he needs parent drivers. Evidently the plan to share a bus with another small school fell through due to liability issues. Dunderheads sure aren't putting their money where their mouth is, constantly complaining about conservation and global warming, but not able to cut through a minor bit of red tape to prevent individual cars making the trip. I just looked it up. Over 2 hours one way!

tell him no. He dont have to make it work as long as he has you and other parents ready to jump everytime. A simple piece of paper signed by parents would have got them on that bus.
 
Hi Linda, hi granny, hi jane!!

Thought your little one would enjoy pictures from the big fire that's up north of us.  There are some good bomber shots, and photo #9, of the big DC10, was on the front page of the paper this morning.  Smaller planes from Sonoma county are the ones I've seen actually flying/working (picture #8).   It also gives a good idea of what it is like around here where I live in the summertime.

Thanks! That's awesome.

It's the school districts saying no. The superintendent's daughter is on the team and he is heavily involved with the team (even runs practice with them). If he can't fix it, the poor coach sure can't. It's the kids that always lose out. Just bugs me that, as a society, we always paint ourselves into a corner with rules and regulations, and no one is allowed to use their own judgement or plain old common sense. Freedom is supposed to come first; government is limited by the constitution. Now it seems we have to beg permission for the simplest things. In California, you are not even supposed to change out the windows in your house without a permit. County government issuing you a permit means they decide whether or not to give you permission... and you have to pay for it too. Completely backwards, if you ask me. Which you didn't... so I am putting my soapbox away.

They were out of As at michaels, so I used a V. These were on clearance for about 60¢ each. Or $1.60? Can't remember. Anyway, seeing them up make me want to turn the V into a cute teepee.
