I was dying to find Kuna Cave once I heard about it. We passed Kuna Cave Road a few times without seeing any signs telling us where the cave is.

We found out the official stance at the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is that the public should be discouraged from visiting the site. However, it's public land, and I found some official documents online showing the location. Since I believe public land should be for the benefit of the public, not just a select few who happen to be "in the know" I've posted the relevant pages here. If you visit the caves, be sure to take care of it--don't litter or deface anything. In fact, clean it up if you find it littered. And of course, be careful and bring a flashlight!

Homeschooling is one of those topics that can bring passionate opinions because it's so deeply personal. I'm guessing it's probably because any question related to how each of us raises our children is going to carry with it a highly charged emotional attachment. If it's true for me, it's probably true for others.

So first off, let me just give a quick caveat that we can disagree on policies, techniques, philosophies, and politics, and still have a great deal of love and respect for each other. These are merely opinions I've formed from my experiences (and probably built-in prejudices). There are numerous awesome, dedicated people working in the public schools (including some great teachers in my own family!) who are doing a wonderful job of making life and learning better for a lot of kids. The fact that I prefer to teach my kids at home doesn't take away from that at all!
