South Padre Island
Like rush-hour in the air. Gulls and skimmers. Ducks on the water.
Just skimmers.
Cursive
At the federal level it hasn’t been a core school requirement since 2010. Less than half the states require it in school at all. It seems irrelevant in these times of laptops, smart phones, and tablets. Who needs to write by hand anymore?
That brings a question to my mind. Every legal document we sign has those two lines: Print your name here. Your signature here. If a kid doesn’t know how to write in cursive, as an adult how are they going to sign a document? Are the print line and signature line going to look exactly the same?
Another 80-degree day
And a sunset to go with it.
Big weather coming soon though. West to east across the whole country.
Chachalaca
They’re big tropical-looking gregarious noisy birds.
And sometimes they even have attitude.
