We studied Abe Lincoln in history last week. His history teacher had pointed out that his boyhood home was about 2 1/2 hours away in KY, and I told myself that if the weather was nice the week after, we would go and visit.
Well, the temps this week were in the 60s, so off we went. We were joined by the Shinds -- Joy and three of her four kids, Sam, Ben, and Lily. (Ben is the boy that Emily "likes.")
The car ride was fun as everyone had someone to talk to and play with. We made the most of the historical site -- video, small museum, junior ranger workbooks, model cabin, trails to hike, trees to climb! It was just such a pleasure to be outside and running around with good friends.
