Back to School

I was hesitant to buy this since it was such a large piece, but when the seller agreed to lower the price from $8 to $6, I decided to get it.


My youngest daughter who hasn't started school yet has taken ownership and enjoys drawing at it.

This Just In

I was at the garage sale of a couple who were both elementary school teachers.  They had some old newspaper issues they said they had used for lessons in school.  I bought some of the more recognizable headlines.  Most are related to Apollo 11.  They were 50 cents a piece.  Most are complete editions including all sections.  Fun to look through and they really are a lesson in history viewed at the moment, rather than through interpretation of historians.
