"Are we there yet?" You roll your eyes. This is, like, the three billionth time your little sister has asked that question. You're still about twenty miles out from your destination. Dad explains once again, "Not yet," and carefully guides the car down the twisting gravel road toward Ferris Living History Camp.
Neither you nor your sister have stayed here before but she's already read all about it online. Ferris LHC presents 7 weeks of immersive adventure in a new historical period each summer.
