Llama Packing: Day 7

Breakfast at Mad Matilda's, ice cream at the local soda fountain (long promised to Melina), and then up I-84. Stopped at Emigrant Springs State Park (Melina: snake park? steak park?) and then continued on to the little town of Echo. Stopped for lunch at the Red ___ Deli (can't remember the exact name); Melina refused to eat anything healthy. By this time, getting road-weary and ready for home. Have driven this endless stretch of I-84 four times this year; starting to feel like a long-haul trucker. Cannot think of new stories to entertain Melina; must find new forms of automotive entertainment.

And there, exhausted, I end my story.

Jennifer: As always i love it when your blog pops up with "7 new entries!" Never just one or two with you-- always the massive post. I loved the llama-packing write-up. We aren't what you'd call a "natural family" but i could picture myself there with you guys-- freaking out in the dark, kids taking dust baths, and being ready to just get home at the end. Thanks for sharing! I'm hoping to see some more pictures of the hens.
