Mini-Elbeno starts his new school next week and last weekend I went over there to join the staff and some other parents in a cleanup session. First was wheeling up some recycle bins and filling them full of old pairs of jeans which the kids had collected previously for a jeans recycling project. Then I got the job of power-washing all the outside equipment: tables, racks, toys, etc. For about an hour I was using the petrol-powered washer and powering off the dirt. The tables and racks were straightforward, but the toys were kind of random with splashing everywhere. With the bright sunshine, for a while I was living in a world of rainbows.
