History Theater Field Trip

We visited the History Theater in St Paul 

We saw, "Baby Case", which was about  the Lindbergh baby. It was fantastic!




The Capitol as viewed from the skyway.


The doors were locked.

St Paul History Theater & Minnesota History Center

We had a fantastic field trip last week to St Paul with fellow homeschoolers. The girls had their first ride on a charter bus.

They dashed directly to the back.

You know you are on a bus with a bunch of homeschoolers when someone brings along a horse tooth.

St Paul


 First stop was the history theater where we saw the musical, "A Civil War Christmas." It was fantastic!

In line for the WW2 plane simulator

After we survived the tornado simulation

Good thing we were in the basement!

Checking out the capitol

This exhibit is nice...it is a house, with stories of all the families that lived there during a span of over 100 years.
