Autumn in the Air

I can really sense autumn in the air. Plans for the fair are on the calendar and there's a preparation going on to get started with "school." In preparation, I have come across several interesting web sources and added them to this blog under the section called Traveler's Corner.

Simply click the button and a trip can be made to see what they have going on. Mostly, I put them there so I can either have easy access per adventure I would like to return. It's so easy though, that anyone can do it, and perhaps anyone who would visit this site, would visit those too.

So what are we doing? We just finished a six week class on the US Constitution and a great little book called THE LAW by Fredric Bastiat. Math is in the works, geometry in particular as is more history and writing a novel this year. Also we are looking at doing a discussion group. Sports is a given, fencing in particular as well as being a part of the fencing club.

I am excited to swee what all transpires this year!

Another Year

Another year ahead, that is, another school year... and it's just around the corner. I can feel it in my bones, as I like to say. You can see it too, it's in the air, it's in stores everywhere. They are all decorated for the coming season of school.

To me it is the end of those long summer days. Time to be about gathering books, resources and ideas for learning. It's the beginning of a new adventure too, and I like that. After homeschooling for so long... parenting now for 27 years... the homeschool scenario is me and my youngest who is 16.

Driver's Ed is in our future, as is math and writing, at this point, what else I am unsure. One thing is certain; I look forward to seeing what the Lord has for us this year.

More later...
