We have one always in April around the Patriots' Day (April 19) holiday but it's not always the same week as even others in the New England states.
We're spoiled down here with an extremely generous spring break, to include Mardi Gras. I guess they figure nobody's coming to school anyway, so might as well let 'em off. I wonder if it would be worth finding out when folks with kids get their spring breaks. Or if it's something folks even want to consider for a Kon...

Only a week here possibly because we also get a week in February that doesn't seem to be the case in many other parts of the country.

We're always scheduled for a week, but sometimes, days are cut to make up for snow days.....sometimes, we only end up with a day.

....today's touristy stuff included a tour of the Celestial Seasonings Tea Company, and an attempted tour of Coors....Tea-yes!, Beer-No, hour and a half wait in the heat and no free beer to keep me cooled off!...:mad:...however, I think the souvenir hair neat and cap from the tea tour made it all better....

Thank you, Scott, for sharing. Wow, a neat tea place, but I know you would have preferred the beer. I donot think Busch Gardens in Tampa gives free samples anymore. Have fun!
...it is the world headquarters, and the sole place that brand name come frond... And the peppermint storage area?....WOW!...cleared the old sinuses right out....
