hey y’all – check out our fun new design for The Highlander School in Atlanta, started by the amazing Rukia Rogers! We’ll be doing a volunteer construction day in 2 weeks – if you’re in the neighborhood stop by. The more the merrier! (and yes: those are SHEEP you see grazing!!!!)
Wow! Even sheep? Looking forward to photos…

I love this, Rusty, especially the sheep. I hope they will feature the sheep being sheared. We used to have a lady who would bring the sheep into the school and shear them. Most kids had no idea where wool yarn came from and that was one of the most educational assemblies we ever had.
Have you heard any more about a conference on play/natural playgrounds in Canada?
I love your drawing!!!!!

thanks Ann!
yes kids + sheep shearing is pretty amazing. I live near a sheep farm that makes a sort of community party out of the shearing days – fun. and what an eye-opening learning experience for the kids. it can get pretty intense! lots of commotion. sometimes blood. phew! but I remember kids being fascinated and focused. (the sheep that this group is getting are actually not shearing types. a different breed that their local connections are giving to them) but still fun. baaaaaa

It would be so nice for the children to have fresh eggs: They are the most delicious.
