There’s a part of us, deep down, that instinctively feels good whenever we see a mess tidied up or something dirty being cleaned. It’s all part of our innate desire to turn chaos into order. Right up there with accidental symmetry and fractals and when things line up perfectly in a photo, is none other than pressure washing which our perfectionist souls find oh-so-satisfying to watch.
With the pandemic putting the brakes on most of our travel plans (and social lives) in 2020, it's safe to say that a lot of our personal goals and priorities have also undergone a major transformation. With that in mind, we've decided to conduct a survey on 1,232 respondents between the ages of 18-35, in an attempt to understand what their travel intent for 2021 is and whether there's any shift in sentiment for millennials and Gen Z-ers when it comes to planning future travel. This infographic presents our key takeaways from the survey on topics such as vaccination, top destinations, and the kind of travel experiences young people are looking for at this point.

Many of us homeschool moms turn into curriculum junkies. I love to see what's new and available...especially when what we're using doesn't seem to be effective. Yes, we need to just buckle down and do the work sometimes, but learning should be a joy. And sometimes, you don't figure out that a curriculum isn't working for your student until you're a couple months (or five) into your school year! Then what do you do?
Most of us are stumped about what to do for fun while we’re under a lockdown and stuck in our homes. We’ve rewatched the Harry Potter movies. We’ve reread all the books for the 12th time.

We are working on the locations that make NM interesting and unique. After reading and researching points of interest, including state and national parks and monuments, the students had to choose a required number of each to write about. A script was provided for developing writers, but strong writers were encouraged to use stronger voice in their writings. No matter which writing style they chose, the same content was required: What is the place called? Where is it located in the state? What is one interesting fact about it? What is something you might learn about it or the state if you visit it? The brochure was created using am 11” x 18” piece of construction paper that was accordion folded. The cover had to feature an image of NM and the state name. The 4 inside panels focused on specific types of parks , monuments, or events/attractions. The back panel showcased our state’s symbols.
