I want to go here...



Every year I try to plan a field trip for the spring that is incorporated into our lessons at home. We have learned about animals and their habitats and gone to the zoo, the oceans and gone to the aquarium and of course some smaller trips around the county too. I've been thinking about what to do this spring and I've decided to find something that you can only do in the PNW, since we may be moving to Texas this summer. I remember when I was in first or second grade going here... It is Historic Fort Langley in Langley, BC. It's where the actual fur trading post was a long time ago and you learn about fur trading, Native Americans (first nations in BC) and can even pan for gold. The have a blacksmith and copper smiths. I think this is the place for our "hands on" type of family. So...has anyone been here recently? Would you like to come along with us? I've just started collecting books from the library on these subjects and will probably plan the field trip some time in March. Here's the link to their site...
