Schools again, et al.

I went to a meeting at Owen's school last night. It was a community meeting to discuss the task force's recommendation that the school be closed. It actually was not as bad as I was expecting. No hand grenades or burning spears. There were quite a few logistical questions, which the school board really needs to answer. The primary one in my mind (and many others') is that it is not safe to have kids walking across the train tracks -- at a place where there is no designated crossing -- to get to school. Some people seem to think this is preferable to a school bus, but I disagree.

Dan had his last softball game of the season. He is off again this week and then goes back to work on Monday. Meanwhile, Owen's soccer season is just about to begin. School starts on August 29.
