Wake up call was 7am to the sound of 3 guys running an auger drilling post holes… right… outside… my trailer window. Hundreds of feet of grass and dirt in every direction… but apparently… 10 feet in front of my window was the single, number one BEST place to fire up that auger at 7am. Cool.

What an exciting day it has been so far. Last night, Linda emailed all of our JA Teachers from this year to let them know that registration is open for next year. With the rate that things are going, we might reach 100 class registrations by the end of today!
