Daycare clients - Wed and Thur this week. There is work being done near our house again on the power poles. There will likely be road signs on both Quarry Rd entrance and District Rd stating the route is closed. Despite the Road Closed and No turn sign, you will be able to still drive down the road to our house. Today the District Rd way was fully blocked off but you could technically still drive down Quarry Rd so I assume it will stay the same. See you all tomorrow!
