In Bisbee we walked around, looked in shops and ate at the Roka Cafe.

A lot of the buildings in Bisbee are built into the side of the mountain.  There are stairs everywhere.

13 Buildings Children Should Know by Annette Roeder
The Art of Construction: Projects and Principles for Beginning Engineers and Architects by Mario Salvadori

We actually got THREE books, here is this fun picture book with fantastic illustrations

Iggy Peck, Architect by Andrea Beaty and David Roberts

In one of our lessons we had to build a model of a tent.  We then went outside to try to build a real tent.  The girls first tried rocks to hold down the ropes, when that didn’t work we had to cheat and use real tent stakes.  Once they were finished it was more of a one person meditation tent.

 

 

 

 

Luke built a “lean to”.

 

 

Hazel’s model.

Eating at Frank’s.

We also visited Kartchner’s Caverns and Tombstone with my parents.  I love this nice picture of my parents outside of the Tombstone Courthouse with all four of the kids photobombing it.
