College Tour

We took Drew on his first college tour this last weekend to Chico State.

It is a little early to be starting but I wanted him to have a foundation and general knowledge on which to build his thoughts about college. College is an abstract thought to a high school sophomore. To be able to see a college campus, visit the bookstore, walk thru a dorm room, etc. is something that they can grasp.

It was a great experience! Highlights included:

* Buying Chico State gear for the whole family
* Eating at the Bear
* Watching a men's soccer game
* Going to the Sierra Nevada Brewery
* Touring Bear Hole, Salmon Hole, 1 mile and 5 mile

The funniest part was when Drew walked into a dorm room and said, "this won't work"! The room was so small that if he laid down on the floor, he would have to bend his knees to avoid hitting the other side of the room. And the beds are twin beds. He hasn't slept in a twin bed since he was 9! We were cracking up!
