A Good Education

"The object of education is to prepare the young to educate themselves throughout their lives."
Robert Maynard Hutchins


























Grandsons watching a rifle-firing demo at Yorktown, VA. Good grief, those old guns were loud!

































Bauer receiving a lecture on different punishments given to wrongdoers. The 'Insubordinate' label he's holding up certainly fits.














Caed petting a turkey in the colonial settlement at Yorktown, VA.

I think one of the best ways to self-
educate is to travel. All these photos were taken on family field trips/vacations. Our family loves to learn the history of a place we visit and to do as many interesting things as we can while there. The children aren't always willing participants, but they'll thank me someday!
