I don't have a view like you do. I stand on my balcony and enjoy the quiet. There's lots of pine trees that are so tall that you only see the small trunks that rise high into the sky. I can see the rows of mailboxes just waiting to deliver fresh news and rounds of bills. People walking their pets and some courteous and clean up and others hoping no one watches as they walk away.

All four of my boys loved the beginning of the school year.   Son Stephen was always the first of the four to get tired of it and began playing around getting later and later to get to school.  On top of that he would throw away the notes from the teacher sent to parents.  He would go to one of the parks or woods and open his lunchbox and eat his lunch and mess around instead of going to school.  And he would take his milk money to the store nearby and buy candy.  He would make good grades because he was smart, but he was always in trouble, and didn't even care.

Good afternoon

That is quite the variety of vehicles. The traffic wouldn't bother me so long as I didn't have to get out of my driveway during the traffic jam timeframe.

Re: Goldiec

No school buses - St. B's is not under the jurisdiction of the public school system.

Good Morning

Pat, I would love to start my day watching the polite traffic jam as the kids go one by one to their designated areas.  Do any of the children get dropped off by school busses?
