JA Biztown
Today I had the chance go to JA Biztown with Lucias 5th grade class. The kids all assume adult roles in a community, running verious business and being consumers. The kids love it.

Mt. Clive
When we walk Ruben in the evenings we like to do a loop around the prairie, at the back of which is a big pile of dirt. We call it Mt. Clive. It is a great place to let Ruben run and view the sunset.
