We have been out of school for three days now because of snow, ice, and freezing rain. Today everything is covered with a coat of ice. Hopefully the temperature is going to rise later today and start to melt this stuff... I took the bus out to my school last night to check on the building. Found a busted water pipe in one of the classrooms. One of the school district maintenance guys talked me through shutting off the water for that room, but boy what a mess... Plan to head in this afternoon and see how the clean up is going.

Speaking of buses... Portland has a great public transportation system. If not for the buses nothing much would be happening.
