22 Days Before Closing (The time that remains before we can move into the new house)

Do you remember when the two weeks that students got off in the spring was called Easter Break? Do you remember Christmas break? The students still get the time off but it is now Spring Break and Winter Break. I wonder what my children's children will call it?

Today's Little Bit of Trivia

One of the most famous paintings of American history, that of Washington crossing the Delaware, leading his men into battle against the redcoats on Christmas Eve 1776, was painted 75 years after the battle by a German artist named Leutze. He used American tourists as models and substituted the Rhine River for the Delaware. He got the style of boat wrong; the clothing wrong; even the American flag was incorrect. This is a good example of artistic license.
