Family Road Trip

We took a road trip out to Petersburg, KY to the visit the Creation Museum. We were fortunate to hear Ken Ham, creator of the museum, speak at a homeschool convention this past June and were eager to visit and see what we could learn on Creationism. 

Just like about every other school subject that my kids learn, I in return learn so much. There is a wealth of information in this museum. One of the most interesting topics presented explained the existence of dinosaurs when God created the beasts of the ground. Being exposed to a scientific theme contrary to evolution, in a museum, was so intriguing and at the same time a sweet blessing.




Botanical Gardens
We had time in our trip to visit Cincinnati where we toured the Underground Railroad Freedom Center. There was a special exhibit where we were treated to an up close and personal viewing of the Emancipation Proclamation. It was one of the original 24 copies that remian in the US with Abraham Lincoln's signature (there were no pictures allowed in that particular exhibit).
