The Transformation.

Everything is about to change.
Stir and sizzle is no more.
In it's place will be a new transformed blog,
with a new template,
and even a new name!

Glasses!


Glasses

A couple of weeks ago I got a pair of new glasses that I need to wear for everyday life.
I'm really enjoying them!
They help me see better, the eye doctor said that I was a little bit near sighted.

Merry almost Christmas!

Death of the penny!

Death of the penny


The penny is dying!
The money making people are going to stop penny production after 2011.
So the joke of asking the cashier to give you your change all in pennies is over...
The penny will remain legal tender, but it will be next to impossible to find a store that accepts them.
The penny will be greatly missed.

R.I.P

Thank you,

Poverty Point. November special!



Last weekend we went on a homeschool field trip to a historic site called Poverty Point.
Poverty Point dates back to about 2100 BC - 1100 BC, the equivalent of American Aztec but before the time of King Tut.

( We stayed from Friday night to Sunday morning.)

We stayed in a longhouse (As I called it, it was long.) there was a boys dorm and a girls dorm, and then some private rooms for adults.
First, at Friday night, we went on a astronomy hike.
I saw the Big Dipper and The Milky Way and Jupiter.
It was amazing!
Your'e ecstatic to see ONE star in New York City!
(end of Friday)

Saturday morning we had pancakes for breakfast, Then we went to see a video at the P.P. Museum.

After that we went on a archeological dig, in a deep sandbox.
I'm not saying it wasn't hard, it was. Our tribe ( The blue panthers)
Found:
2 arrowheads,
2 atlatl (Spear) weights
1 axehead
2 Fishing net weights
1 cleaning tool
1 deer skull.

Then we went on a edible plants hike.

After that we threw Atlatls and played the ancient game, La Cross.

La crosse was used to settle arguments among tribes instead of war.

We went on a night prowl to go Spider sniffing ( Yes, I said spider sniffing.)
It's when you go into deep woods, put the flashlight on your forehead and the spiders eyes reflect back like moving glitter on the ground.
( End of saturday)

In the morning we cleaned up the dorms and packed the car up.

Happy Spider sniffing!,
Jackson

Daddy

Hello Acorn Lads!
Yesterday me and my Dad went on a photography walk around the neighborhood.

Welcome To the Garden District Walk, A Fall Special:

Like The Bold/Italic entry?
Anyway,
Me: ROLL THE PICTRUES!!
Blogger: ON IT!!!

Sorry, I'm having trouble with getting my pics where I want them to go.
Go to the top of the post before I say "Acorn Lads" to see all the pictures.

Love,
Jackson

P.S

The first thing that comes to mind when you first enter the Garden District is "Beautiful".
The Flowers, The houses, But, the most beautiful, is the trees.

Their branches reach over the streets and touch each other, like a tunnel of trees.

It's a wonderful neighborhood.
I really like it for It's Beauty and It's vibe.
