Oh, and also...

I've got some pics and a vid of the wreath laying ceremony. So that's on the way tomorrow, with plenty more as well.

Yup, we were part of the evacuation into the Smithsonian...

... and I got a short vid from the kids commenting about it, but I'm having trouble uploading the vid to YouTube. Hopefully after some sleep I can figure out what's wrong and also write up a summary narrative of the adventure.

Quick update

Yikes what a day! What a week! It's been great. This year's group has been such a blast, though their high spirits have contributed to my lack of laptop time (don't worry, parents, "high spirits" isn't a euphemism for "your kids are out of control" -- really they've been pretty good. Mostly. (-:)

We've just stopped for our last meal here in DC. In about 30 minutes we'll head out to tour several memorials. About 8:30PMish, the bus will head back to Elkhart, under the capable supervision of Mrs. Dunk and Mrs. Weatherholt. I'll be staying here in DC for a few days with my sister & bro-in-law, which will give me time to upload some of the pics and vids I've accumulated.

Guardians, please be prompt picking up your kids tomorrow morning (scheduled to be around 7:30ish -- but last year we were a good hour early; we'll have kids use cell phones to communicate what's going on).
