Eruption Eminent



Erruption Eminent

This volcano seems simple enough, no smoke just fantastic pictures in the newspaper. It is posing a real problem for me (Bonnie) paper mache with 3rd graders is already like teaching cats to rollerskate them tell them we are having an earthquake when we are not and we squeeze under tables wet hands and gooey shirts and stay there until the fake earthquake it over, I say blow or not, but no more teasing us along Redoubt!!

ICE DAY III




Well, Seth and I awoke to morning number 3 of a phone call at 5am, no school. This officially means we will have an extra day of school in the summer when it is gorgeous and everyone would really rather be doing something else. This also makes it a 6 day weekend with Martin Luther King day, should've gone somewhere. Lucky Seth is heading to Seattle on Saturday afternoon for his friend Dylan's wedding reception in Seattle, should be a blast!

ICE DAY! PART II

It is officially day number 2 with no school here in Anchorage and I have to say another day of this and we will be working on extra days at the end of the school year. We were all whining about -20 even -39, than we wake-up one morning and it is 35 above, this afternoon reports of 54!! Bad roads, heavy clouds, Alyeska is closed and I have to say it's getting to be a bit of a bummer. Not a bummer sleeping in, watching afternoon T.V and meeting Seth for lunch though!

Schools closed; power outages widespread

Anchorage and Mat-Su schools and university classes are closed again today because of icy streets and high winds. But the city has resumed most public bus service after suspending it earlier in the day.
