International Walk to School Day

We enjoyed this year's International Walk to School Day trek up to the elementary school.  (The middle school doesn't do this).  With the close proximity of the Lakeland Trail to the school, a LOT of people take advantage and walk.  They even have a spot where, on these recognized walking days, the buses drop the kids off and parents lead a chaperoned walk to the school.

Every time we do this, we say that we have to walk more often - there really is no excuse...it's less than a quarter of a mile.

It was also "Pocket Day" today - hence the double hoodies.  Poor kid will be devastated that his mere 8 pockets will not win him a prize.  I saw kids with clearly over-achieving moms who had custom made t-shirts and such with dozens of pockets sewn onto them.
