"Old School"

This week my sister and I are going to break it down old school style. We are NOT going streaking in the quad... "tempting, but NO!" (you know what movie that quote is from?)

Remember when...

Schools actually went on field trips...

Teachers actually taught in the same school district for more then 5 years

and

Kids actually rode their bike everywhere they went.

At the boys school he will not be taking any field trips so I made the decision to take him out of school a day early this week and we took a trip up to the lake house. I decided we needed to take a nature field trip. When we were younger my parents took us to this place called Brasstown Bald, Georgias Highest mountain. I vaguely remember it... but the one thing I do remember was it was a long climb and at the top you could look out and see 4 different states.

It is quite a climb but we all made it to the top minus any active bear sightings... and it was a great experience for all. They have completely renovated it and now have a museum at the top with tons of interactive things for the kids and adults.
