Spring breakers do it right

It was the “best day of spring break” and he's just halfway through. This breaking news from one of Teacher Town’s own. 

It started with a proclamation: “My mortal body has grown weak. I require sustenance.” (Fortunately, this earthly being can also reach the cereal bowl.)

Next up, bikes were loaded atop the car for a trek in the woods. Through the barren spikes of winter, leaves sprouted on branches above. Wheels bounced over tree roots and through a tunnel begging for a chorus of “Echo! Echo!”

Back in on road, a simple signal of “battery low” landed him at the bagel shop for another recharge. 

Build a bench without nails? Done. Mine diamonds on Minecraft? Done. Set the table for five because the big brothers came for a visit? Done and done!

Five days to go, and this one’s planning to make them all count.

  2. Yesterday I thought it was Wednesday when it was only Tuesday--hallelujah! Make this break feel like two weeks.
