 there wasnt any blogs or comp. when we did our favorite ones! ours were researching old old towns and then going to them, digging around, taking pictures, talking to the old timers,of course we always had a picnic or camped out there for a couple days, etc. those were our funnest ones i think, well there the ones that i remember the most!

Wow  I don't even know... I would have to say 2yrs ago to Sanibel/Captiva Island for vacation... turned out to be a very educational trip.  We saw sooo many sea creatures and visited a local aquarium.  We were still fairly new to homeschooling then as well.  No blogs or links on this one.  There are some pics on my facebook :)

Here's a listing of places we've been, but I forgot you have to have a password to get to the photos...well, not a password, but be a member of Shutterfly.  I don't want everyone in the world to be able to see them, but let me see if I can tweak it a little to share with you ladies :).

Okay, it should let you in if you click the link now.

We did a behind a behind the scenes tour of a movie theatre and my boys thought that was really cool. Our zoo here in Houston has homeschooling days and classes throughout the year that we all love. We have also done a photo hike at a national preserve. But, our most memorable has to be when we went to the Attorney General's office and he gave us a tour of the courthouse and jail. The head guard even put some of the kids in handcuffs and in a holding cell!

The bread factory was really cool or maybe the renaissance festival
