I just love my county. I love America.  I drive across it regularly. It and all its people are truly moving to me.  A beautiful place.

"Perhaps ours is an era where politics has trumped principle to such an extent that the idea of resigning for the sake of honor and decency is almost unthinkable. But the truth will not be hidden forever...."

Working on My Commonplace Book

Samples From My Copybook

Since copywork is a part of our Language Arts, I started my own copybook. Here are a few quotes:

"And I slept, dreaming a perfect dream. The fields had turned to a sea that gleamed like sun on glass."-Sarah, Plain and Tall

"My brother William is a fisherman, and he tells me that when he is in the middle of a fogbound sea the water is a color for which there is no name"
-Sarah, Plain and Tall

"It's work, son," Father said, "that's what money is, it's hard work."
-Farmer Boy

"It was farmers that took all that country and made it America, son. Don't you ever forget that."-Farmer Boy

"But my only year on Sweetbriar, the frosty trees were tipped with stars, and I felt at home with only the wind, and the wild island horses that rose from the sea."
--The Wild Horses of Sweetbriar

"You must do something to make the world more beautiful"-Miss Rumphius
