Our Visit to Sandy Hook Lighthouse
We go to Sandy Hook often, and several times we have done the tour of the light house. In fact, we have been there since our visit in 2017, and it is still as lovely, and educational as ever. (2017) At first we had a class with a homeschool group to the Marsh and Ocean […]
Our Visit To Bowman Hill Wildflower Preserve

Our Visit To Double Trouble State Park

Our Visit To NY Renaissance Faire
Tuxedo, NY August 2017 We have been meaning to go the NY Renaissance Faire for years now. Ever since my parents moved nearby.
