I used to spend a lot of my summers with my sister in Florida, so I have very fond memories of going to a really cool store down there [I can't remember the name of it now, dang it, but it was in either Pompano Beach or Fort Lauderdale] that was kind of along the lines of a Consolidated Sales or Woolco/Woolworth's only better and picking out all my cool superhero pocket folders and spiral bound notebooks. Plus the smell of all the new erasers and pencils and various school "stuff" is a fond memory. And, of course, who can forget the GREAT smell of the stuff the teachers used to run on the old mimeograph machines!
I do agree that school is starting waaaay too soon these days, but I guess they do it now because [at least in our area] if they even mention the word "snow" in the forecast during the winter, the schools are usually either dismissed early or called off altogether....!
