Day 911: Graduation 2014

Graduation 2014:  A lovely vocal performance by Michaela, strings by Emily and Devin, and Alex on the marimba, lively speeches, moving tributes, many awards, an empty chair for Nate, caps tossed in the air, pure joy.

The principal presented an honorary diploma to the Polisoto family and students saved a seat for him.   Very touching.  The guest speaker was nearly impossible to hear and focused too much on himself, although he did offer some valuable advice.   We felt it was a happier, more upbeat ceremony than usual until the final student speaker.  His sarcasm and cynicism were not amusing, except when he referred to Mike, the Board President, as a middle aged man.  

We scrubbed down picnic tables and hosed the pollen off the front porch in preparation for the Quest leaders party.  It will be really hot and muggy tomorrow so I hope we can keep everyone comfortable.

I swam another 250 lengths which takes me just over 19 miles.  If I can squeeze an hour out of tomorrow for swimming, I can reach 20 miles for the month of June.
