My Own Worthy Read
I’m excited to share with you the news that I have an article and photographs published in the Spring 2013 issue of Georgia Backroads magazine. If you’re a local Georgia homeschooler, you may be interested in picking up a copy because my article is a good lesson in Georgia and American history. Titled “Rogues Road Landmark: The William Harris Homestead,” I give readers a glimpse into the history of the beautiful William Harris Homestead (pictured above) in Monroe, Georgia. If you haven’t visited the homestead and you want to, don’t hesitate to e-mail me and ask about it!

My worthy reads are rather skimpy because we’ve had some illnesses in the house, and I’m plum tired of reading about homeschooling in the media. It’s so much of the same stuff. But I have found some great blog posts and a few other worthy reads to share with you.
