A Local Museum

Our homeschool group did their most recent session as a session of field trips.  


What a fantastic idea! Our portfolios are looking spiffy at the school year halfway mark.  


This impressive mural surrounded the display that commemorated trench warfare.  Since our guide was a chemist, we learned a lot about the evolution of chemical warfare.


This local military museum tour was well tailored to all the age groups, which is something we all appreciate.


We enjoyed seeing all the military vehicles and weapons.  Blossom4 especially loved the jeeps!


I'm pretty sure the part of the field trip devoted especially to the history of tanks was the favorite though.


The monuments were solemn and the scenery was lovely.  We do live in a splendid part of the Northeast.  


The ice cream afterward was a huge hit too.  I love it when a day of learning can be fun, scenic, yummy AND educational.
