Road Trip (Day 1)






We left yesterday afternoon with Cade, Carter, David and Cami on our Oregon/Washington road trip. We rented a 31 foot motor home, loaded it with food and stuff, and headed out. We pulled into an rv campground outside of Beaver, Utah, or so we thought, to spend the night, only to discover it was more like an rv park where people live in their rv's full time. They had little gardens and everything. Oh well. We had a little firepit where we cooked hamburgers for dinner, they had a grass field with a box full of balls, etc, so the kids played ball, ran around yelling and totally disrupting all the old people's peace and quiet! Only minor malfunction was Ed backing the motor home into a pole and breaking a reflector light on the rv!! We have now christened it on this trip, it has been christened by others as well from the appearance of the bumper!! Keep checking back, we will be blogging as we go. Kids are doing great and think this is the greatest adventure ever!!! Esp. late last night when Poppa tried to get up to quiet them down in their beds, missed a step and went crashing to the front of the motorhome and nearly ended up head first in the drivers seat! More adventures to come from the most awesome road trip ever!!
