I noticed that last week I failed to mention Jennifer Bland as one of the painting ladies. Anyway, they are still at work and trying to finish up so they can dash off and paint someone else’s wall. School starts next week. I’m not sure if the Bulldogs’ electric busses will be ready to roll

Another Picnic has made it into the history books. The pictures for said event will probably go on for a couple of weeks. I will remember this Picnic as the “cool” one. I’ve only witnessed one other Picnic even remotely similar. It was so cool that some people put sweaters on their babies. So, now
