Insect Volunteer


As part of his community service for high school graduation, Anders has been volunteering at UVM's  Natural History Museum, cataloging insects.  He's been focused on butterflies so far.  Pretty cool!

Our Danish Exchange Students


   

We hosted 3 Danish exchange students and their chaperone for a week.
Anders, Torbjorn, Asgar, and Melthe
They arrived on Monday, March 28 and left Monday, April 4.
They slept out in the barn and we had breakfast with them each morning and then a few nights we served them dinner.  It was super fun to host them. We took them to play frisbee golf, made pancakes with them, served Ben & Jerry's ice cream, and other fun meals that we thought they'd like.  
There were 18 Danes in all that stayed with assorted other families.
They merged with Anders BCL program and they did lots of fun things together as 
two different schools from two different countries.  
They left for NY City and spent the last part of their trip in NY and going to see a Broadway show. 
SO MUCH FUN!
