Despite major bus aggravation (the morning bus never came at all; the PM bus didn't know they had to take him home, and had to go back to school to get him), B.Major had a good day. Lots of earth science. We were able to review chapter 1 and complete most of the chapter review. After dinner he wrote a page about what ought to be considered before a school is built near a former garbage dump. This seemed timely since he and his dad visited the former landfill site last week, to see where the future park will be.
He is reading Mrs.Frisby and the Rats of NIMH-- at least it is in his backpack. Didn't he read that in sixth grade?
En route to school we listened to much opera. Pavarotti has died. We listened to more this afternoon, especially the old favorite Nessun dorma. I was able to figure out how to access YouTube (pretty good for one who calls herself a Luddite) and we also enjoyed his performance of Vesti la giubba. Am I the only one who remembers the old commercial, "No -- more -- Rice Krispies!" ?
Cats in the basement again. Ogni dormant.
