years and counting, and I and my four siblings have all been homeschooled.
Three of us have graduated and have gone on to further our skills, be it in
the Air Nat'l Guard, Cosmetology school, or apprenticing out to other
blacksmiths to learn how to better our own business. The two youngest are
still being homeschooled, our mother stays at home to teach. I am the
oldest, and my oldest brother will be taking over the business when my
father decides to retire (which, if I've gotten the drift from a few old
timers, will be never!) In any case, there seems to be a lot of us out
there!! Blacksmithing has been wonderful for my brother's learning and
creative process, so keep teaching!
