Announcements/AO/ CM Meeting in NW Indiana (near IL and not far from Michigan)
10-07-2015, 05:59 AM
Thursday, October 15th, just a touch more than one week away.
I hope to have some AO friends there with whom we can discuss nature study. I have a couple of the books Miss Mason used, and I'll be letting others touch them for a pittance (just kidding. You can't touch them)*
Bring your own favorite resource, and a snack. I will provide coffee, hot tea, and water is there at the library (really this time- last time, I couldn't do the coffee and I forgot the plates, but I should be able to do it this time).
An unexpected bonus was that last time, Baby Grayson came, too- he's my grandchild who was in the NICU during the AO conference and for whom so many, many people prayed. He might be there this time, too- because nursing babies and nursling toddlers are always welcome wherever AO goes.=)
Hope you can come.
*Okay, seriously, you can touch them. You can take pictures. And it's free.=)

I just put the teabags (Choice organic) coffee (paris vanilla), saucers, cups and napkins into a pretty basket, gathered some interesting nature study books, and collected a couple nature study specimens from my retaining wall. Sitting down now to work on my notes some more.
Feel free to bring along some nature study resources you've loved, or your own or the kids' nature study notebooks!

Wonderful time, Wendi. Stephanie and I both commented on the way home how much we enjoyed it. Gave me a fresh perspective. Thank you for hosting!

Aw, you're sweet. I emailed the documents on nature study just now. Let me know if you don't get them.

Heh. I just emailed you about this. No, but I'm working on a plan for a January meeting during the day, with kids and various CM type activities.
