Michaela's Field Trip

Michaela's 4th grade class just went on a field trip to the Olivas Adobe, a historic Mexican rancho from the 1840s that includes a lot of fun learning activities: grinding corn, stomping in mud and making bricks, making (and eating!) masa tortillas, and roping an artificial bull. I've been able to go on this field trip with each of our girls and as always, it was informative and fun.
