Yet, this place called "Agate" is a landscape that reflects many influences—from early animals roaming the valleys and hills, to tribal nations calling the High Plains home, to explorers passing through or settling in the American West. http://www.nps.gov/agfo/index.htm

Editor's Notes
- it is a zero in the URL
- Ask if they took field trips in Elementary School & where? Middle School & where? High School & where? College & where?
- Ask them what VFTs they have done, how did it go?
- You don’t have to leave school, no gas or lunch money! Sometimes it is just a regular teacher that has become the HAL instructor. Kids (families) don’t get to go places like they once did.
