It was a powerful experience! Kudos to you for extending the challenge to all your students. Love your pics and comments from your DC excursions.

You could go to the sculpture garden in Minneapolis at the Walker Art Museum (the museum is fun too). I love it and it's where the iconic cherry and spoon are. There's a greenhouse there too and I think it's open even during winter. There's a sculpture in there also. There are some great independent bookstores there too like Birchbark Books and Wild Rumpus. Have fun whatever you do.Crystalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14662811441487822589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5590105980864822497.post-43768521429466189742014-12-02T22:01:35.242-05:002014-12-02T22:01:35.242-05:00Beth,

I really wanted to see the WWII Memorial and the Martin Luther King Memorial. I'm going to have to start considering an extra day for sight seeing. You are so smart! <br /><br />CathyCathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08233792477358685156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5590105980864822497.post-82528153465251195262014-12-02T21:48:39.031-05:002014-12-02T21:48:39.031-05:00Thanks for sharing these!
