Fido’s Field dog park in #UrbanaOH I’m always cautious about dog parks and prefer to be there alone or with 1-2 other dogs. Off leash time is the best time even though it was a bit warm #DogsofBlueSky

Teachers gave away books, boxed them up, or closed their school libraries. Now there' a pause, for who knows how long and who knows what it will look like when it comes back. This stop/start is not good for teaching, it's not good for kids. Books are essential to learning.

Throughout this week, I am taking a nostalgic look at school supplies in Canada.
Today, it is the famous Hilroy and Campfire notebooks so many Canadian children used during their school years.
This is the history of those supplies!
