Mom: Did you get lost again at school? Petey: Yes. I was looking for my portable classroom and I couldn't find it. I looked all over the schoolyard. Petey: I did find a camp of retirees who'd parked their Rv's on the tetherball court. Mom: This is silly! I'm calling the principal! Petey: I also found a hobo jungle, a colony of circus folk and a few busloads of shoppers who thought they were at the off price mall.

What are retirees doing thinking a school as an RV park?

Are you sure you aren’t embellishing your report just a bit, Petey? After all, you are a renowned author (see Toad Zombies)….

I used to teach in a school district that, at the time, just could not convince the town to pass a bond to build a new high school. So the old one was overcrowded, and had several dozen portable classrooms out back to accommodate all the students. I could see EXACTLY this sort of thing happening out there! (Fortunately, a few years later, they finally passed a bond, and the district now has two sensibly-sized high schools.)

I just attended my 60th High School reunion this weekend. The “temporary bungalows” that were used in my day are still there.
