Introduction

I want to include some details on the site about how this all came to be, and it started seeming like creating a blog would be the best way to accomplish that.  I've never tried one before, so please be kind.

I plan on using the first few posts to explain how we got here.  Once I'm caught up with that, I'll try to start sharing some of the other things that go on - new color patterns, equipment failures, new staff - things like that.

I'm looking forward to giving this a try.  

Note:  The photo I attached to this was taken during one of the field trips that various schools have included us in.  It's always a good time - there's nothing better than a bunch of kids getting excited about something I like to do!
