Clocks

I wanted to explain the clock to the right. In Geography we are studing the different countries and we are studing North America first. We of course are studying the USA first. I will being putting the different time zones and what country we are studying on here. It is always interesting to see the difference in time. Next week I will being putting up a new time zone...we get to use our passports next week...so that means we are leaving the USA and learning about different countries in North America.

By studying some of the states in the USA, Caleb and I have planned some of our "future vacations" if we are every able too.

As we study these different locations if you have any wonderful facts or information, please share with us. So right now we in the USA, anyone having been in the east coast or the west coast have anything to share?

Uncle Luke has recently been to Pennsylvania, Connecticut and California. He's also been to New York and Washington, also Arizona. I didn't realize how much he's gotten around! ha. I bet if Caleb emailed him, he'd be glad to share a little bit with him. Something cool he saw this week in San Diego was some sea lions that came up onto the beach from the ocean to sun themselves. Pretty neato huh? Not fair he gets to go to all these cool places, but I know he'd rather be home with us most of the time.

Your studies sound so FUN!! I'll be anxious to read more about it. :)

Love n hugs,
Jami

How neat! Jason has just arrived back from Spokane, WA and it's dreary there most of the time. Normal days, when he's been there (this was his 3rd week long trip) it's cloudy and gray and sometimes misty and/or raining. He enjoys sunshine. Although this week it was sunnier there than here. They are an hour behind us, so two behind you.

Also, a little fact. The bank they worked at was from the 30's and still had all the furniture and wooden bars on the teller lines. They just started using computers. (it was, actually, a little town about an hour from Spokane).

those are the little bits of info i have.

I left a long comment on this post about a week ago...but now I see that it didn't post. But, that's ok...it was a bunch of nothingness, and now I remember something cool about the west coast. In Oregon, it's (or it WAS..maybe Caleb can research it a little bit) illegal to pump your own gas. All stations are full-service.

How are you guys??
