New blog location

Hey there,

Glad you've come by to read my blog. However, I have relocated it so that it resides on our own website - http://www.knowledgequestmaps.com/blog.

This is the permanent location, but a temporary template. It will be updated to match our "look" soon. But the content and comments are coming in steady, so come on over and join the conversation. Have a great day!

Warmly,

Terri Johnson

You can join UHSE live!

Wow, this is different from last year. Last year, you had to be a paid member to listen in during Expo week, but Cindy, in her generosity, is allowing everyone to listen in live - member or not!

So that means that you can listen LIVE all week. That is a great option for everyone who cannot afford the full Expo membership at this time. However, if you do choose to purchase a ticket, you will receive recordings of all 75 sessions plus access to the virtual vendor hall plus all of the downloads and goodies in the grab bag. It really is a tremendous deal at $39.95 (or $59.95 if you order with a friend).

Ultimate Homeschool Expo

Here's how you can participate, ticket or not:

We've held our drawing and the winner of the free ticket to UHSE is...

Karen from Alabama

She has been notified by email and will hopefully receive her ticket confirmation shortly. But Karen, if you do not get it right away, it's just because Cindy is so incredibly busy. Give her some time to get the details together for you.

For the rest of you, you will want to grab your ticket now because the conference starts in just 30 minutes!
