learn nothing day

we had an awesome "learn nothing day" up at rock creek with some of our friends from around here as well as some unschoolers from out of town. the day started out awesomely as i had talked heather into carpooling with us and so i got to talk her head off while we drove off to the mountains. we met lots of new people (which i had met before at kelly lovejoy's but ya'll know my memory), and goofed around with some very very cool unschooling kids. i am always in awe of how amazing kids can be. there was great food, swimming in the ice cold water, wading in the creek to catch critters, and lots of conversation and laughs.
