I wanted to see how this Teaching from Rest group worked out, both planning-wise and technology-wise before proceeding.Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12689104216675201913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4006833743714206736.post-83113986382140321062016-02-17T20:54:13.880-08:002016-02-17T20:54:13.880-08:00Oh, that is too bad about the First Saturday Adora...Oh, that is too bad about the First Saturday Adoration get-together. I had to chuckle though--how very odd to have it listed there anyway! :/<br /><br />If you open up the 20 Principles Study to non-local ladies (and if there's still room), let me know. We just got through Start Here with the local group but I could use a bit more chat about it. :)Celestehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05834674328751444179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4006833743714206736.post-16814827648286287342016-02-09T16:38:16.959-08:002016-02-09T16:38:16.959-08:00Hi Lisa, that's great that you're startin...Hi Lisa, that's great that you're starting a Nature Study group with your local HS'ing group! I tend to be a bit of a pessimist too and I don't have high hopes for mine either... but I realized when I was dithering back and forth about starting it that all I could do was make the commitment to try for a year and be faithful to that. And the place where we meet is lovely, and I certainly don't mind making a point of going there each month this year!<br /><br />I'd love to have a more fully featured co-op like Nancy Kelly's Truth, Beauty and Goodness co-op, but I don't think that would ever actually happen. But I'm pleased and grateful to at least have some opportunity to share a little of the riches with another family.<br /><br />It is good to hear from you, Lisa, I hope your Nature Study group goes well!Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12689104216675201913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4006833743714206736.post-22088518569895220202016-02-09T11:07:48.205-08:002016-02-09T11:07:48.205-08:00Hi Amber,

However, there are so few CM'ers in our group, I don't expect a very large turn-out. Admittedly, I am a bit of a pessimist! ;)But I am still looking forward to it, and I am hoping the group will grow with time.<br />I have also considered doing a Shakespeare study group/co-op, but I think it's safe to say that only a few - if any - families would even show up for that. Maybe in the future..<br />Thanks for this updated post.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13273301456471935137noreply@blogger.com
