Other than finals, we spent the last week of school cleaning up our classrooms: washing & dusting the entire room, desks, shelves, etc.., turning in & organizing books, etc.... We also had field days, playing softball etc...
I remember the November of my senior year: the bus driver let me leave my trapping pack, coat & waders in the bus so I could check my muskrat trap line after school. Of course I lived out in the middle of nowhere, most of the kids in our area lived on dairy farms. Everyone hunted, fished and/or trapped. I even remember kids bringing shotguns & rifles into wood shop to refinish them. Wasn't a big deal as long as you did bring ammo and the teacher knew.Carl

We got finals till wed, this is the first year in my 8 years of grade school where we are acutualy doing somthing the last week of school, I gotta confess though, friday at 1 pm (when we get out) odds are I'll be at the fairhope pier and won't leave till it's time to work, then I'll go back, and repeat this over and over again, stopping every wed. to go to the GS pier
I figure it this way, if everyone in the world had a lie clock, whose hands moved once every time they lied. You could use any politicians lie clock as a ceiling fan.

The "good old days": like back when there was no internet, no computers, no cable TV, no TV at all, cars had no air bags, safety glass and lasted 50,000 miles before they died, no AC or central heat, no vaccinations or antibiotics, no refrigeration, had to ride a horse to get to town, most people lived to be maybe 50, chances of surviving childhood was less than 50/50,......, those good old days?????

The only thing better about the old days than now is that my mom and dad were still alive.

Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
