You know what they say about dogs and tricks. It was a big jolt for
me to have school begin before Labor Day... and I was just a parent at
that time. Our traditional week before Labor Day vacation up at Lake
Tahoe with friends and their families ceased due to that little kink.
We got over it. Frankly, after that I didn't care when school started
as long as it ended by June 1. June 1 is still a pipe dream.
