Rainy Day

Today is a particularly rainy day. Tough waking up in the morning on a day like this. I don’t mind the rain so much except when commuting to work. The walk from Herald Square to the office is brutal when it is storming like it was this morning. I took advantage of the situation and… Read More: Rainy Day »

Aw! So close!

Last night I was playing Wii Sports, particularly Bowling. Just playing single games with one player, for about an hour. Well, this is what happened.

Trip to the Brandywine

This past weekend Sarah and I went on a trip to the Brandywine Valley. We had been there last year, to visit the two major attractions, Longwood Gardens and Winterthur. Both of these were owned by members of the DuPont family. This past weekend, we got to see a little more about how the DuPont’s… Read More: Trip to the Brandywine »

Techniques for Snow Day

We had a snow come through yesterday afternoon. On Thursday the weathermen were calling for the snow to start in the evening, which gave Sarah’s students hope of a snow day. Sarah was able to learn about a few techniques that students use in order to bring the snow. Wear Pajamas inside-out and backwards Put… Read More: Techniques for Snow Day »
