“Did you fall off of the back of a potato truck?”

We went on a field trip, about 0.3 miles from our home!

We rode a wagon to pick potatoes.

I am not making that up.

Yup, those homeschoolers know how to live it up!

When the tractor stopped, the farmer told us about how potatoes
are planted, harvested, and best stored. 

I was amazed, hours later, to hear my kids retell to their father. 
They were listening.

About potatoes.

Scooter was so good.

She was desperate to fall asleep, and was doing so in my lap,
despite the bumpy wagon ride. 
The second I got her in her car seat, she was OUT!
