Trunk or Treat

Before Trunk or Treat, we had fun making marshmallow skeletons. Thanks to all for helping make Trunk or Treat a huge success.

Fishing

Many thanks to Rob and Sam for teaching us about fly fishing.

First we learned to cast	…and we didn’t get tangled!
Next (the following Saturday) we went to Rocky Ford. (Marisa, Jake, and Rob pictured in the distance.)	Kim, Alaina, Holden, Griffin, William, Kathleen.
Where we (the kids) had real success!

Washington DC

Many thanks to Didi, Carrie, and Lauren for their tour of Washington, D.C. Such history!

We had a waffle iron test kitchen on Sunday, June 17. Each test started with the students making a hypothesis that, to Sandy’s surprise, turned out to be remarkably accurate. Brownie batter was the favorite. Cookie dough failed miserably. Cake mix worked well, but we were tired of sweets. Hash browns didn’t cook so well, but they made a great palate cleanser. Many thanks to Doug Walter and Carolyn Kelly for loaning us waffle irons and to Kim Martinson for preparing the cookie dough.

Canoe Trip

Last Sunday our annual canoe trip to Pillsbury Crossing was a huge success (thank you Larry Weaver, Dan Swenson, and Doug Walter!).
