I remember as a kid, having three months off for summer vacation. End on or around June 15th, and not go back until the 9th or 10 of September. Now, they only get two months off. At least the ones around here do.
Jim, I think it is dependent on where you live. I know in Florida they had to keep the schedule longer to allow for hurricane days. I believe similar to other states, and the snow days that they have to try and allot for.
It sure is! Back to the old grind, I am getting backer-board on the bathroom walls. Next step, tile. Doing the whole thing, less the ceiling. I am going to put new sheet rock up there though. It's not flat. If I don't do it now it won't happen.
I cannot guess how August has slipped by!
