Home School, who says it has to be at home

The weather has been exceptionally nice lately. Last Thursday, we packed our school books up and headed to the Reservoir.
This is where we spent the morning working & playing.


When we were finished with our books, we headed to the Visitors Center and the Fossil Gorge to explore.
We found big rocks...
and fossils!
We weren't allowed to bring any home, but we had fun finding them.
We looked in crevasses and caverns...
and jumped over the water.

We had fun.
The next two pictures are of the area by the spill way.
This top one is how it looked during the flood. The water is covering the beach and upper and lower parking lot.
And this is how it looks today.

alright - more questions :-) Have you home-schooled since preschool and do you plan on continuing all the way through? I just ask because I am contemplating...
