Leaving school on Thursday we discovered a screw in our tire! By the time we had a new tire there was no time to make dinner, so we headed to the Yacht Club for dinner. Thanks, Nan & Pop!

As you can see from the fires at the Yacht Club, it’s getting cool here. That means it’s pumpkin recipe time! Check out these pumpkin streusel muffins dad made!

Due to much complaining by The Mother about our tent being too small, we bought a new one. So we had to try it out of course. We went to Christmas Valley and Dad took us on the Crack in the Ground hike…

Whoa! This is a crack in the ground.



In some places, it was pretty tight, but not too tight to monkey around.









Here’s our new tent. Spacious. Or so it seems.

Here is the view from the Green Mountain Campground. We had it to ourselves.


It got dark pretty early so I checked out some planets and stars with my telescope.

In the morning it was quite obvious to The Mother that no tent would be big enough if said tent was infested with a snuggle bug.

After breakfast we headed to the sand dunes. It was very cool but so windy that we all are now partly blind.

We stopped at Fort Rock State Park for lunch on the way home.




It was a pretty cool rock formation. I climbed up lots of it, with little regard as to how I would get down.
