You know you’re talking to an intelligent person when you can converse with them about the flaws in the public school system and they don’t get all flustered. Even if their children are in the system. I am fortunate to have family that can openly discuss these major flaws and not feel like they are [...]

Here is a slideshow from our most recent camping trip. We camped again at Garner State Park. This trip was my favorite because of all the hiking we did. The Beck’s don’t start out simple We didn’t intend on hiking one of the most difficult trails with 4 children and a dog but it’s kind [...]

2 Heads? For sure! I mean I must if I homeschool, right? That’s certainly what many people think when you tell them you homeschool.
