Corn Dawgs Field Trip

Today we enjoyed a trip to Corn Dawgs with some of our homeschool friends. It was a beautiful day and there was lots to do. The kids all had a blast.

Thoughts for Thursday

One of the many perks of homeschooling is that my child is not confined to a desk. They can take their work anywhere. What better place than the quiet of nature to sit and compose.


Theron was actually home on this day, putting on the pool cover, and snapped this shot of our little writer.
This is what Theron was working on.



He keeps trying to come up with some way to prevent water from collecting on the pool cover. When he does, we can probably make a lot of money from his invention.

An Unexpected Adventure

The day started early, as we were headed to Marietta for an Air Show. Most of us slept in the car on the way. When we arrived at our destination, it was unusually uncrowded. We began to feel that we were in the Twilight Zone. My brave husband got out of the car and walked up to the Air Force building to investigate. "What do mean? I know nothing about an air show," the man rudely replied. But it was in the news, with much detail about what and who was going to be there; all these activities he was looking forward to sharing with his son and daughter.
Wow, that really tells you how reliable the news is, doesn't it? Well, I won't get into that right now, 'cause we really had a great day after all.
We came up with a plan B on the spot and decided to go to Kennesaw Mountain, especially since Theron and the kids have never been. I myself have been many times, but it had been awhile. Parking is an issue there, and the only place we could find when we first arrived was for the visitor's center, so we did that first. Then we went back to our car and decided we would walk up the mountain trail if a parking space opened up. We drove around one time and Voila! Here we go!
