  • For his birthday, he was given membership to a local RC airplane club. Today was the first time he was able to attend a "fly-in." Needless to say, he was beyond excited. He doesn't have his own plane yet, but one of the other men in the club, let him fly his Night Vapor.

We attended a KinderKonzert put on by the Portland Symphony Orchestra. It was about Abby Burgess - a young girl who lived in a lighthouse off the coast of Maine in the late 1800s. Her father had to go for supplies and left Abby to keep the lights burning in the lighthouse. A storm was raging and Abby had to work alone to keep the lights going. 

While this was a fantastic concert, it was really designed for children about age 4-12. My poor oldest son "suffered" through it, but it was enjoyable. Not only did the children learn about Abby Burgess, but they were also introduced to four different stringed instruments - violin, viola, cello, and bass. 

It also fit in with our Maine studies.
