Fifth Graders, Canoes, Sunshine, Bows and Arrows

Seventy-three fifth graders, including BrownBear, on a beautiful Friday, take the big field trip. No one hurt, lost, or maimed. No one loses an eye, no one falls in the lake, and all but one child was picked up on time. We waited nearly 35 minutes for a girl's grandmother, who told me on the phone, "Well, my daughter told me I had until 6:30." Uh, no; that's when I was going to be popping the top off of a cold one, thank you very much. No attitudes today, except hers.
