What's Going On: News In E111

Wow! I had a very busy week! We had 2 fieldtrips. On Monday we went to Madison and on Wednsday we went to Pual Bunnyon logging camp in Eau Claire!

About Madison:

We got to take a tour of the capital! We seen many beautiful rooms. Most of the capital is made interesting stones (mostly marble). There were many mosaics and stained glass. We visited the court room and we got to sit in the chairs! We learned a lot about what takes place in each of the rooms and seen many statues. In one of the stairs there was a fossil of a starfish. There were many marble pillars that looked outstanding. Even the bathrooms looked antique and were made from marble. After we were done with our tour we took a picture of everbody. Then we ate outside on the capital grounds.

About Eau Claire:

Yesterday we traveled to Eau Claire to visit the Paul Bunnyon Logging Camp. We got to eat old-fashioned ice-cream and then we got to see how people lived a long time ago and the changes in time. Then we seen exhibits of logging materials and the jobs. We went inside a life-size model of a logging camp. We seen the kitchen, bunks, and where the trainer slept. When we were done we went to the activity room and played different games. Next we seen a movie on farm-life and finally we went home.

So that's a wrap-up of everything we did so far this weekend. Enjoy the rest of the week!
