First Day of School

25 Aug 2008
So today was the first day of school! It was awesome - not really. It was just regular except that we had to get up early enough to be there on time (7:45 a.m.) and that Derek went around all day looking for "Kebin, Tyter and Dad".
This is a very tired Tyler holding up his invitation to the local cub scouts. I thought you had to be 8 to do that.
This is a picture of the line of cars waiting to drop off/pick up their kids from school. It's kind of hard to see but the line goes all the way back up the street to the stop light and down Potranco toward WalMart. It took me 45 min to get Tyler. See, they won't let the younger kids leave the school unless they are with a parent or on the bus. Unfortunately they don't have a bus that goes to our house even though it's more than a mile away. Aparently the elementary school has 1,300 students and the middle school next door has 1,500.
This is what happens to Derek in the afternoon when he wakes up too early in the morning.

That's a pretty bad line. Sometimes I think that public school systems need professional designers to analyze and foresee such problems.
... Or, at least someone who cares?
