So Many Loose Ends Finally Tied (More to Be Unraveled Soon)

In the last couple days, we've finished up a three and a half hour video on Lewis and Clark (over eight days), FINALLY finished reading Time Stops for No Mouse, and also, incidentally, finished up our first book of Two Minute Mysteries. (But never fear; Dr. Haledjian, Inspector Winters, Sheriff Monahan, Nick the Nose, and the lovely Lady Octavia all have further perplexing problems in the sequel, More Two Minute Mysteries.) 

Most of the kids really really enjoyed the Lewis and Clark documentary. As I told them today, every bit of history has a real story behind it that would be every bit as long. I hope they're all learning their piece of history well through this research project. 

I have everyone's outline except for a couple people who weren't here, and they should receive them back tomorrow. They look pretty good so far.
