Southside Elememtary & Cabot Middle School 24


I was at two schools today in Cabot, Arkansas near Little Rock.

Southside Elementary with Melissa Wilson where I spoke to K thru 4th grade. And Cabot Middle School South with Stephanie Collins speaking to 5th and 6th grade. Both wonderful schools with outstanding librarians.

I’ve fallen right back into School Visit Mode without a glitch. Asleep by 7PM. Up at 2AM for a long very hot shower at the Peabody Hotel without worrying about water conservation, which was a great way to start the day. At the desk by 3AM writing until Melissa came by to pick me up.
