On Tuesdays, my friend Amy and I meet to catch up on the week's news. Sometimes Steve joins us. We talk about everything: school, our families, childhood, my book, plumbing, travel, gardening and future plans. She took my place as chair of the social studies department, so I act as her sounding board and she keeps me connected to the team and teaching that I love. We're going to Alaska together in August and that should be a riot cause when we are together we laugh and laugh.
We drove around all of Cassadaga Lake before we finally discovered a covey of mallards and a pair of swans. The ducks seemed to be having discussion, perhaps about how delighted they were with the 60 degree temperature and an open pool of water. Only a thin sheet of ice covers part of the shallow, spring-fed lake.
On Center Road, we could see all the way across the iceless Lake Erie. This winter has been extraordinary!
