[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The poco is? They have a very famous educational program for eagle watching. Maybe that's thr reason. [/quote]

Yes, they are going for the eagle program.

I guess my main concern is riding in a big ole bus on mountain roads.  They are very windy and I remember dodging rock falls when I was young.  Also wondering if the bus has seat belts.

Also I just talked to her (she is slightly slow; just learned to ride her bike last week) and she has mixed feelings.  I didn't even tell her I was hesitating.  She said since her capital trip was such a bust she was not looking forward to this trip.  But she also wants
To be with her friends.  We are all conflicted but after this week's Oprah about listening to your inner voice I am especially conflicted.

I will wait for the principal o call back and maybe talk to some other moms whose kids have gone in the past.  Maybe I am overprotective but now I remember why.

Many years ago my son went on an overnight Boy Scout repelling trip.  One of the boys fell to his death - his father was right there and saw it happen.   We got the call about the accident and that they were coming home early, three dad before they had planned to return.  I can't tell you how devastating it was to know my son was ok but how horrific it was for the other family.  That kind of stuff stays with you forever.
