First Day of 5th Grade (Sort of), A Walk to Baldy and a Peregrine Falcon




Definitely a different 1st day of school.  The Anchorage School District gave students three options for their return to school.  Traditional Homeschool that you would have to enroll in, the school district's Homeschool that would not be affiliated with her elementary school she is used to, or regular school that depending on the covid numbers would be full time in school/two days in school or, if numbers are high ... online.  We chose to stay with school and with Anchorage numbers...we are online til at least October ... probably longer.  So far, it is working out.  Not sure what will happen if they say "come on back to school!"  Will keep you posted. 



On a beautiful Saturday we headed out for a hike up Mt. Baldy.  Since this photo was taken (August 16), the temps have dropped and leaves are turning.  Winter is coming to Alaska.  





Lastly, we were visited by not one but two Peregrine Falcons.  One almost lost his/her life when they flew into the window and knocked themselves out.  I told Rob to remove him/her  if he/she was still there this evening.   I checked an hour later and no falcon insight...made me happy!  See if you can find him in the photo above.
