I'm with floridacracker - I want to go back to school. I'm trying to figure out some weeds in the new llama paddocks and boy, do I feel dumb.
You must be so proud!

I thought the look was for the hat he was wearing. Syracuse is having another terrible season. I can only hope the basketball team will be much better than the football team.

Linda, he figures no one will recognize him over at school today. lol

STeve, yeah, oh, yeah, I want to be a student over there so bad....they have so many great courses, I wouldn't even know what to take. Of course they have to take a lot of junk too....

Jan, it is you are right. We talk about such eclectic stuff every night. Big topic lately has been the CERN thing. Who wouldda thought?

Joated, I don't know why we don't have them, but I have only ever seen maybe one on the farm in almost thirty years here. Maybe we are too far from big enough bodies of water or something. We have thousands of red backs...I love our nightly discussions. I have with all the kids. With Liz it was animal management stuff, with Beck it is ancient civilizations etc and now the wildlife material....Can't beat it.

And those ears! Wow!I can't believe that you folks...

And those ears! Wow!

I can't believe that you folks live on a farm in the Mohawk Valley and he hasn't seen red efts crawling around the ground after a spring/summer/fall rain. Both here in PA and up at the Bolt Hole north of you, I've got to be careful walking around after a heavy dew because there are so many of the little orange guys on the ground.

Sounds like he's having fun AND learning. Now that's a winning combination. His sharing the infromation with you is as good as a three hour study session for him. And that is another winner.

I enjoyed education by proxy from my children too. And no tests or term papers. The best kind of education.

Hey, hang on to your credits but you are getting much more of an education through your young man there. Funny how education is something that we took for granted when we had to do it, yet we yearn for when we don't have to.

Zat really you Alan?
You know it changes his looks almost as much as a babies first haircut. He looks so............manly!

FC, why don't these college field trips need mommy chaperons like elementary school? Some of my best Herkimer Diamond digging forays involved yellow buses and numerous kids having fun getting dirty.

I WANNA GO BACK TO SCHOOL!
