4 September 2011 - School Starts

Just one day after returning from our trip to New York and New Jersey, the girls headed back to school.  They were excited to be back with friends and teachers, and so far, it's been a good school year.  Meanwhile, Joanne and I set about preparing for our semesters to begin as well, so it was a busy, but uneventful week. I have but one photo to share from this week.  Strangely, Saturday, September 3rd was our hottest day of the year -- 97% with 95% humidity.  Even during our three-week heat wave in July the heat index did not exceed what we experienced on Sept. 4th.  Needless to say, it was pretty gross to be outside, so we did what we always do.  We headed to the pool.  Here is Madeline with a mermaid tail on.

We hope each of you enjoy a safe and happy Labor Day.
