Did they work?

We found little leprechaun footprints, but none of our traps had a leprechaun.
He did leave us a note though!
It says: "He, he, he, you can't catch me!"



Our Traps!





Leprechaun Traps



We researched how to trap a leprechaun and now we are building our traps using our engineering skills!

Boone Hall Plantation

After the SC Sea Turtle Hospital we visited Boone Hall Plantation. We learned so much about the slave cabins, growing and harvesting cotton, and the Gullah culture. 







Sea Turtle Release

We were so fortunate to be able to see a rare leatherback sea turtle when we visited the hospital right before they released it! Here is an article about the release:

SC Aquarium and Sea Turtle Hospital

We loved the aquarium! The boys saw sharks, alligators, hawks, touched sting rays, and got to visit the SC Sea Turtle Hospital! We were able to see the turtles we raised money to help adopt and it was such a wonderful experience!
