CSA Week 16



This is our last one. I was hoping it would last into October, but I guess with the drought this year and cold weather coming early it has to be this way. We will have a Harvest Dinner with other members and then it's over. I will definitely join again next year.

Backcountry Camping with Kids in Theodore Roosevelt National Park

Day 1  Back in May I stumbled upon Theodore Roosevelt National Park. I had no idea there was a National Park in North Dakota and that it was the northern end of the Badlands. Usually our summer vacations coincide with Scott's work trips. Since he didn't have any this summer I thought we should take advantage of actually taking a vacation.

Since we couldn't leave until the kids were out of school, I had us pick up sandwiches to eat on the way. Mine wasn't too bad.  Trader Joe's is always a bit weird. Everything has to be unique. Like why did the kids ham and cheese sandwiches have a log of butter? When we arrived I gave my mom her remaining gifts from Japan as a Mother's day gift. Grandpa's pancakes are the best. Theo has been excited to see how far along the upstairs was done.  It's getting there. Cool and gloomy, just like you imagine Memorial Day Weekend to be, I guess. Rummage saleing this year was a whole family affair.
