Keep Your Sunny Side Up!

Happy New Year!!! I hope you are well.

I have a friend who says, when parting ways, “Keep your sunny side up!” Anyone who knows me knows I’m not someone to put on fake airs, but I do love this sentiment and wanted to share it with you.

This month I’m trying something new with the blog. I wanted to use a framework of links to all the various services I provide so people remember I’m not “just” Outside School and Bandana Bear. It’s still interspersed with the updated enrollment information and inspiration, resources, and nature news you’ve come to expect. Perhaps I’ll make some fancy headers in the future, or use it to redesign my website. In the meantime, I’d love to know what you think!

Keeping my sunny side up!


For kids ages 5 - 18 in beautiful Wildcat Canyon Regional Park- easy to reach off I-80, The Arlington, and San Pablo Dam Road. Homeschoolers and independent studiers welcome!


Bandana Bear: Made by Outside School!

Inspiration, Resources, and Nature News

From wherever.

Serpentinite

I just learned more about serpentinite, finding an article about a location mentioned in a lecture I attended long ago:

The Cedars: Sonoma County's Hidden Treasure, by Roger Raiche, Fremontia.

Fascinating!
