There's a big sale on produce going on at the AC Value Center, one of the two grocery stores. Corn is 98 cents an ear. I find that amazing when back in Illinois corn right now probably goes for 10 cents an ear.
Another garage sale in the morning, this one in a barn in a field out back.
Other than that, we just sort of hung out all day. I'm anxious to start school full on.
I finished two books this weekend, Cold by John Smolens and Learning for All by Lawrence W. Lezotte. Cold was a book written in perfect little movie scenes. It was Hemingway-esque in its brief prose. A good little read about a man escaping from the prison in which he was falsely incarcerated by simply walking away in a blizzard. He goes back home to try to take down the corrupt family that put him there and get back his family. Good book.
I also finished that short education book Learning for All. It was given to us during the new teacher inservice. It was all right. I initially find it to be one of those books that talks a good game but has no practical advice.
