Yesterday, we took a day trip to Staunton, VA, to tour Blackfriars Playhouse (a recreation of the London theater where many of Shakespeare's plays were originally staged) and to visit the American Frontier Culture Museum. Although the sky was overcast, the rain stayed away. The grounds were a bit sloppy, but I guess that helped add to the authenticity of our farm experience.
Noah was having a rather difficult day, refusing to listen to anyone or anything and decorating his pants with markers. But we learned quite a few things from Alexa:
1. When in a Shakespearean play, the role of the queen is preferrable. And if you can't be queen, Barbie is the next best choice.
2. Farm chickens should be loudly instructed to walk like pigeons.
3. Ladybugs scream "AAAAAHHH" if you take them for a car ride.
and
4. To get a cow to make chocolate milk, you have to shove a candy bar up its bottom.
Forsooth, it was an educational day at the Roussel Roost.
