Your family certainly has had an interesting array of places to see. Our first graduate was 2000. The years do fly. I enjoyed seeing your photos down through the years.

I, like Bekah, like cities too. I spent two days at the Baltimore Harbor last year during a spontaneous trip with one of my daughters. We did not see all that you guys did. And Washington DC is always a great place to visit. The photos you have shared are lovely.<br /><br />If you ever get to Annapolis, we found a great little museum. John and I just celebrated our 43rd anniversary and did an overnight there. There is a gem of a museum at the Navel Academy featuring models of ships built through 1600-1800's. It is small but we really enjoyed it.<br /><br />So nice stopping by to catch up with you and your dear family!GratefulPrayerThankfulHearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05912258806814037028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6596988245744679027.post-55740538714110054902018-10-25T08:28:25.888-04:002018-10-25T08:28:25.888-04:00Ellen, we joked that Kati was the only one on our ...Ellen, we joked that Kati was the only one on our trip who was <i>not</i> a senior! 🤣Cheryl https://www.blogger.com/profile/00063844335185525553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6596988245744679027.post-22125870966669881862018-10-25T08:27:09.943-04:002018-10-25T08:27:09.943-04:00She sure did squeeze a lot into the days . . . kep...She sure did squeeze a lot into the days . . . kept this old girl hopping! 🤣Cheryl https://www.blogger.com/profile/00063844335185525553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6596988245744679027.post-56440414043435350772018-10-24T22:21:56.451-04:002018-10-24T22:21:56.451-04:00Such a inspiring way to enjoy Senior trips then wh...Such a inspiring way to enjoy Senior trips then what our current culture offers. How nice that Bekah could enjoy so many worthwhile venues. Each of our kids are so unique and it's great to roll with what they find interesting.

Your intro is so funny because our kids' age span is 18 years and I know exactly what you mean. It's easy for me to get life of daughter #1 and life of daughter #2 mixed up. We didn't take you camping on the North Shore?? Nice to know it happens to others too. What great memories these trips give our kids! I remember once the local school guidance counselor told me I should put the kids in school because they were going to get a field trip to the local hatchery. Lol. Really. Our kids were going to Civil War battlefields, the Field Museum in Chicago, and Saulte Ste Marie.

It is so difficult to see suffering, and to know what human beings can do to other human beings! The Jewish people have suffered unimaginably. <br /><br />I, too, am happy to have had both girls with us. Kati had enough vacation time to take three days for the senior trip and still have enough for her own trip later in the week. It was a whirlwind, but so worth it!
