7th graders

are such a joy!I am volunteering this week again, tours for the Ankeny 7th graders at the Ankeny Area Hysterical Society, actually Historical Society. Some are very inquisitive, some are smart alecks, the first group of the day looks like zombies, not awake yet. My part of the tour covers our school building history, four sports team histories, a one room school house and farm house/parlor from the 1800's with NO electricity. I show them the old version of a cell phone and I Pod and ask who wants to go back in time and try this life of 100 years ago......not too many takers.
After a while, we all have mentioned that we forget what we said or "did I tell them that event?" Lunch time is great, Yankee Clipper Taco Tuesday is always delicious. We might have pizza Thurs or Friday and maybe even a pot luck...One altercation of three boys pushing and shoving...in a museum with irreplaceable items. I took care of it peacefully and sternly. Keep your head down and follow through. FORE!

PS, do these folks look like they had fun at the Drake Relays? Where was the sunshine?
