I don’t have many words for today as it’s a work day for me and I think the pictures speak many words. If you visit the Occaneechi Tribe website you’ll find a lot of interesting information.
Our fieldtrip yesterday…
Michaela gets her picture made after learning a circle dance.
I just can’t emphasize enough how extremely nice these people at Occaneechi are. This was a very information-packed and interesting fieldtrip. I found that the more I heard the more I wanted to hear. We’ll definitely be doing some follow-up reading about the indians who lived (and live) right here around us
The dress above weighs 45 pounds!
Simple Math:
a bunch of boys + a table full of homemade weapons = overwhelmed table attendant
Is this a ferocious weapon or what?
We love seeing our homeschooling friends.
We learned about many contributions to society made by our Indian friends.
If you get a chance, go.
Also, an organization that has done a lot to find and mark old trading paths and historic villages in the Piedmont: Trading Path
And the blog: Trading Path Blog
Happy Friday,

The boy table one just had me giggling up a storm!!
It was pretty comical. Boys love stuff like that! Lynn
Wasn’t this fun! I loved seeing your pictures. I’m hoping to post mine later today. We’ll see.
Love
