What we do for fun...
Just home from a picnic at my former school - was invited by a couple of good friends who are still teaching there. The food was supplied - barbecued hamburgers, roast beef, and teriyaki or spicy salmon complete with all the trimmings. For dessert there were chocolate and carrot cakes plus watermelon. Everything was delicious! For fun, there was a bouncy castle for the kids and then for something really exciting this year, we had a tractor pull. Yes I live in the 'burbs very close to the country - some of the students actually live on farms in the area and their parents/grandparents open their homes for visits to the pumpkin patch or to see the baby animals that are born in the springtime. A great time was had by all tonight at the 3rd annual school picnic.

Nothing runs like a Deere! I used to live in Waterloo, Iowa, and they had four John Deere plants there. Iowa is real proud of those big green machines. Looks like a great time!
ReplyDeleteNothing like a good outing, a good time and wonderful food in the fresh air.

Leave it to the teachers to plan a good feed. You'll never go hungry at a school party, so I've found. I read about your potential new job. Hope it worked out, but if not, I'm sure you'll find something that lets you work with kids.
ReplyDeleteah, there's nothing like a good barbecue/picnic with friends. i've never been on a tractor pull before. who pulls the tractor, and do people ride on it?
ReplyDeletei meant to say, "i've never heard of a tractor pull before."
