The day after Halloween we had unseasonably warm weather. We took advantage of the opportunity to spend some time out on the back deck, I with my book and Adelaide with her tent, pencil and paper and legions of stuffed animals. She bustled around setting up a school for the animals, and after they had all spent some time in the tent together they were ready to begin the real work of the day, learning to fly. I'm not sure if it was merely the presence of the clothesline and clothespins, or some internal inspiration, but those animals were destined to be airborne. The vision:A helping hand for take-off:And they're off!As the head teacher and founder of the school, Adelaide realized she needed to recruit some volunteers, so she created a sign-in sheet:
I was recruited, and in addition to documenting the flight, I was asked to teach reading to the friends who were grounded for various issues:Adelaide assisted students in dressing the part:A good time was had by all.
