We were notified about two weeks ago that city was going to resurface our street. The night before they had "no parking" signs out on the street. We weren't sure how they were going to do it. At 8 a.m. we heard the rumble of the equiptment and knew that something had started. Of course it became a huge distraction. But what a great reason to stop doing school and stand out front and watch. One vehicle sliced up the asphalt and threw it up a conveyor belt into a truck in front of it. A sweeper thing then swept up what it could and threw that up a conveyor belt into another dump truck. They also had a front loader knocking down chunks and a regular street sweeper plus a water truck. The surprising thing was the speed these guys were driving. And then to maneuver it around the bend next to our house. It was pretty impressive.

Great opportunity to learn through experience than book. Seizing the moment is important in life and specially home school.
