Maypole and Holidays
The children started to school and were soon busy with many
activities. All grades attended one school, but it was still much larger than
the rural schools where I taught.
Both Joe and Rosalyn were in the May festival the elementary school held
one year. Joe performed his part with no problems, but Rosalyn stepped on
a bee the afternoon before the festival and had to hobble though her dance.
Easter egg hunts and Valentine parties were among the highlights of their
school years.
