The Best Thing I Learned on the Field Trip . . .
. . . and it wasn't that our students now consider Austin Powers an OLD movie (as in "I love watching these old movies and seeing the previews for other movies I've seen!").
There is a fullsize reproduction of Moses' Tabernacle in Lancaster, PA!
Who knew?
And if you knew and hadn't told me, shame on you!
The Fullsize reproduction of Moses' Tabernacle as found in the book of Exodus is at the Mennonite Information Center - and I may have to order one of the Tabernacle Model Kits. I'm certainly going to bring the website up next semester when we talk about the Codex Amiatinus, which has a lovely full-page diagram of the Tabernacle.

Wow, now that makes ME feel old. Austin Powers was all the rage when I was in High School. How scary is that...
