Homeschool Field Trip

Through the Belle Isle zoo in Detroit there are monthly homeschool field trips. This past Thursday we went to Kensington Park for a hike and to talk about dog facts. It was a great day. Victoria, the woman who runs the field trips really knows how to work with the homeschool crowd and she really knew her stuff.
She had dog skulls, we looked at dog tracks, dogs were welcome on the hike, she talked about coyotes and wolf packs and the history of their diminished populations, and we even strayed off into leaf galls, sassparilla and other ingredients of root beer and wooly bears.
A good day in the wood.


the Michigan Shaped Sassparilla.

The Bean and the wolly bear.

All those leaves!!!!
