Slice of Life: It’s a Parade

This is for Slice of Life. We took our youngest to the Holyoke St. Patrick’s Day Parade yesterday. We figured he has to go at least once to one of the largest St. Paddy parades in the country (about 400,000 people come to watch). It was a bit cold, but it was fun, too. Who doesn’t like a good parade?

Peace (in the green),

Slice of Life: Balloon Head

Our school held a hat day fundraiser yesterday (for a walkway near a new pavilion) and a student came in, bearing gifts of balloon hats (this is the same student I referenced the other day). I happily wore mine for most of the day. (Blue is the color of our class Quidditch team, too.)


Peace (in the hat,
Kevin

Slice of Life: Lamenting the End of Google Reader

This is for Slice of Life. Today, I mull over the news that Google will be shutting down Google Reader this summer, and it had me thinking about how RSS has become such an integral part of my information gathering around teaching and technology.

Peace (in the RSS feed),
