2015 - Getting Ready for New Trip

Hello All!

We are preparing for this year's trip so I thought I would sign in and dust off the blog.  :)  Since I am home with a fast internet connection, I thought I would entertain you with some more pics from last year's trip. Here are some pics that you didn't see yet.

These are from Gatlinburg, TN.

 

 

 

 

 

 

These were taken a year ago and Sam has outgrown almost all of these clothes!

 

Here are a couple from the campground in Findlay, OH.

 

 

 

 

Here are a few from 1880 Town in SD

 

 

 

 

 

Year Four - Days Forty-Five and Forty-Six - Home!

Summer’s View

Driving day today to head south – glad to be a couch potato today, as we are all sore from yesterday  - LOL! We made it to Cordele, GA to spend the night at a KOA. Tomorrow we are hoping to make it all the way home! Yay!

Last day - We made it home! Yay! Sam was super excited and we were all looking at what had changed since we last drove through town!

Thank you all for joining us on our trip this year! We could feel you with us in spirit and it helped us enjoy ourselves! Until next year, Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year! :)

 

 

Year Four - Day One Hundred and Forty-Four

Summer’s View

Today was the day for the ropes course adventure and zip lines. Sam is just under the age limit for the full course, so we did the junior course, which is actually just the first two of four different levels of the ropes course.

Three hours later, all I can say is, thank goodness we didn’t try to do the whole thing! J Whew! This thing was CHALLENGING! There were a couple of the areas where I could barely reach the ropes and wires, so Sam was amazing that he did it! Wow! Now, I am pumped and ready to get better at it for next year! J

Sam and I went to the Science Center today for a day of fun and learning. This place was pretty big, and Sam had a blast! There was a colossal playground/climbing gym that just kept going up – it peaked at a point that actually went through the roof for a view of the city and river from up above, about six stories up! Needless to say, we closed the place down, and Sam wore himself out! J

Driving day today – we are heading further south! We made it to Nashville, TN for a couple of days of play. We are staying at a campground that has a huge waterpark and even bigger outdoor ropes course and zip line area. The waterpark is closed for the winter, but the ropes course is open on weekends, so we will check it out on Saturday.

Sam and I went to the St. Louis Zoo today, as the weather is supposed to clear up and stop raining, finally! It was still chilly, and the sun never did show, but we had a great zoo day! This zoo is really big, and we barely made it through before they kicked us out to close at 5:00 pm!

We managed to find a few new animals and insects we had never seen before, and we had fun watching the baby elephant steal hay from the larger elephants. J There was a pair of lions, and it must be mating season for them, because the male lion went on a roaring fit every few minutes. We finally caught him in action once, and he was too funny! After roaring for a while (and you can hear their roar up to five miles away) he flopped over on his side like he was exhausted! LOL
