Field Trip
Robert and I came back from his class field trip to West Virginia on Wednesday. After two-and-a-half days, I was impressed with both his classmates and his teachers. I never knew you could make a working straw from red oak, and that white oak has crystals in it which block water or air so it won’t work for straws.

And they played this cool “Oh Deer” game the last day; it was a great way to show the practical impact of too many deer and how wolves can help to improve the ecosystem by helping to balance that population out.

Lots of fun was had by all.
