School Week 30 2011

This week we are reading the last book on the My America Underground Railroad series, Message in the Sky.
The next set of books deal with the Civil War, we were planning to go to Gettysburg after finishing the underground railroad series.

We wanted to visit The Dobbin House Tavern(In the mid-1800's, a secret crawl space, featured in "National Geographic", served as a "station" for hiding runaway slaves on their perilous journey to freedom on the "Underground Railroad." After the battle of Gettysburg ceased, and the armies had departed, it served as a hospital for wounded soldiers of both the North and the South).

However, If we wait till we are finished with the Civil war books then we can make a whole day out of it and visit some of the places mention in that series as well.

Of course that would mean that Daddy would be coming along as well!! and the weather will probably be a bit warmer by then.
