This is a private K-9 school with a boarding component. We cancelled school yesterday, expecting a deluge of snow. Instead, the parking lot and the playing field grass was barely covered.

I'll check back in late April...:)thelearningcoachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10215840378952153322noreply@blogger.com
