After yesterday, it was such a pleasure to wake up to beautiful blue skies this morning. It was very brisk outside, still mildly windy, but so peaceful. Brock and Heidi got a run in and I made pancakes for breakfast. While I was at the griddle, there was a trailer shaking boom and a few smaller ones followed, which I learned later in the day were bomb testing since we are near a couple of bases. Weird!
After breakfast, schooling and work continued through the day. I used the laundry room here to catch up. We hadn't done any laundry while at the state park, so it was fairly taking over the bunk room. ;o) It was a nice clean laundry room and not too expensive so it didn't feel like TOO much a chore and it always feels good when it is done (at least until that first item goes into the bottom of the basket again).
Towards the end of the day, we headed out to grab a burger at a chain called Whataburger! It was about the same price as a McD's, but the food was much tastier in our opinion. The food was all cooked fresh and the toppings were made to order (kind of) since half of ours weren't exactly as we'd specified. The burgers were good though and the fries were salty and crisp.
We went from there to the Winn Dixie and picked up a few items that were on our list, especially milk and ice cream, our staples. Brock had worked a very long day and felt ready for some relaxation so he decided to grab a man movie from the Redbox there.
We came back to the trailer and everyone sampled the Caramel Crave ice cream (yum!) and the kids went to bed and we got to watch the Bourne movie just the two of us. It wasn't exactly the movie I'd pick, but it was nice to sit with Brock and get lost in a story. Can't say it was too relaxing as it made me a little tensed up, but it was entertaining.
Welcome to our Adventure...
We packed up the kids, dog and the trailer and headed out for adventure, learning and helping others. During our adventure we will try to update this site as often as possible to keep everyone interested involved in our travels and to keep a journal for ourselves. The plan is to be working, schooling, helping and sharing on the road for a year.
