FIELD TRIP!

We took our annual trip to the local museum on their "History Day" and got SO much out of it this year!  A group of us homeschoolers went together, (along with 4th graders from all around the surrounding area), to learn about the history here, rope making, native culture, soil conservation (that would be daddy's station!) and so much more!  Enjoy the pictures!


Learning about noxious weeds and the history of survey equipment by our local NRCS.

Such a neat field trip for the kids! Grandpa loves to go there, too, whenever we visit Hardin. The kids never seem to get tired of it even without the extra activities! Thanks for sharing all the great pictures!
