@Tracey: LOVED your post. I tried to leave a comment about it on your blog 2x and got knocked-off both times. While I cannot copy and paste it here (Wouldn’t you know Blogger lost it!?!?), I wanted to be sure I shared the essence of it with you.
First, yea for getting outside during your staff development. It sounds like a fun activity that allowed everyone to share a few laughs, cut loose, and refocus. AND thanks to everyone’s energy level going up, you got out early. Yea!
