    Look what I found this morning!

    This was in front of my classroom door this morning. Isn't it cool? The agriculture/shop teacher claimed it was an early retirement gift. I'm retiring after 34 years in the classroom on July 1st. Woohoo.

    Well, easier said than done. I had a green thumb many years ago, but when I started having children and responsibilities it seemed to vanish. Maybe now is the time to try again!

    That's great! What a terrific surprise, and congratulations on your retirement.

    You could always do it with excelsior baskets and silk or plastic flowers. I'm useless at container gardening, too.
