Today, we’re talking my friend Veronica MacDonald Ditko, author of “A Rock Solid History of Hawthorne New Jersey”.
In Today’s Episode, Veronica and I discuss the fascinating mysteries of history that can be found in our own backyard. We talk about how watching her kids play in the park led her to get curious about the rocks in her town, and how that led to her learning about her town’s history. We also discuss how we can use her experience to encourage our kids curiosity and find fascinating, family-friendly adventures to get us out of the house, and keep us entertained during the COVID-19 pandemic.
