We met another homeschooling family who loves to go crabbing and has all the gear. So we spent Monday afternoon at the Goleta Pier fishing and crabbing. We didn't catch any fish, but we did catch a crab.

Roman's shirt had a hole in it; the boys also found some spare fishing line on the pier. So they decided to make a kite out of Roman's shirt.
Field trip to the SB Marine Museum - We had gotten a library pass to get in for free. We had a bored docent show us around and learned so much about SB history. It was a very well done museum.
The virtual deep sea fishing is a favorite.

Learning about the Japanese attack during WWII on a local area.

Taking a hike in the open space near our house. Spring is in full bloom and glorious in California.
All of our noses started running during this walk.

On our last day of school, Colleen had started a headcold. So she spent the morning with Dad, eating work snacks and treats while Amelia & Austin went on a birding walk with the SB Audubon group. The birders were so kind, pointing out birds and teaching the kids so many fun things. They made sure they got to see the baby birds in a box and use their fancy birding telescopes.
Then later that afternoon we went to the MOXI museum on a free library pass.
