Holly, we all had such a great time that day! And when we got home the children were peacefull and quiet and cooperative! We are hoping to get out at least every weekend for more wilderness adventures and start working on our bowdrills again. And in March, Phelan's teacher has asked me to help plan a tracking adventure for his whole class. :) Much love, Karla “Seek the Wilderness for there you will find peace” ~Tom Brown Jr.

We love all the wonderful treasures and magic. I take my children from summer school out every day for walks when I am teaching during the ESY session. I teach children with moderate to severe disabilities with my Waldorf training and am currently enrolled online to get my Masters In Special education. I am going through empty nest syndrome right now cause my babies have flown the nest. I think this is what they are supposed to do but it is still hard when you miss them.
