whew! now THAT was a good time. so much work, a little worry, totally worth it.

armed with map name tags of our actual destinations, oodles of parents and grandparents, we set off for downtown!

i gathered some interesting facts about our town and the places were would visit.

and after caravaning our way, we met up for our tours!

every field trip included a stop at pages bookshop for snacks and a book shop/tea lounge/coffee shop/art gallery tour.
