RECENT POSTS: Bernice posts more post-storm pix, and meditates on Labor Day (she was timely, I'm late).  Olddoc notes substantive matters at both meetings tonight: Council and Board of Ed. Maria reveals the District has twice had to answer to the Office of Civil Rights for its failures to implement bilingual services. Councilor Williams, at And My Point Is. announces a community cleanup of the Library grounds is set for Sept. 17th. At Jackie's TV Blog, I missed her Sunday pix so scroll down for those, past her BB13 live feed updates. I am in high hopes, now that summer is 'over', the less active bloggers will freshen up their posts. Hint, hint.
