Doing outdoor chores before our trip, Nick took down our hanging plants because they were dying and we found these.   It was neat, but sad, no babies were inside, which was good, since we hadn't seen the momma in awhile.


 

Now the trip details begin!!

We made it!  Lucy did great at cousin camp with Auntie Heather and Ryann kept my parents busy.
Nick and I traveled a total of 3,126 miles in 9 days, WOW!
