What a great way to begin a 16-day trip to the British Isles. Just hours before we were to fly from Reagan National Airport to Shannon, Ireland, I received a letter from the State of New Jersey officially informing me that on July 7th the state Bureau of Retirements had approved my application for early retirement as a NJ teacher effective July 1.
So now, thanks to Mr. Alice Cooper, I have a new theme song: "No more pencils, no more school books, no more teacher's dirty looks. School's out for Summer ... School's Out forever."
And by the way, speaking of time off, I won't be posting during our trip, but will resume entries when we return. Until then, enjoy. I know we will.
