And if you missed it, here's what happened last week:
Community editor Erika Engel shares her story about being home-schooled as a child. She would receive VHS tapes in the mail, filmed in a Florida classroom, even though they lived in Ontario. The tapes came in boxes delivered by UPS, and she had a few months to watch them and return them. She strongly points out that home-schooled kids certainly didn't have the "easy road," as many had suggested.
Reporter Bob Bruton talks about getting the COVID-19 vaccine once available and some of the questions he has. "I’m not really one for getting vaccinated," he writes. "I don’t get the annual flu shot, figuring a good diet, adequate exercise and seven hours of sleep a night will keep me healthy. The only vaccine I ever got was for H1N1, and that was because my then-teenaged son wouldn’t have got his shot had I begged off. But this coronavirus is different than the annual flu or H1N1."
