Complaint:Why do laptops not have emogies on Notes? The world is very rude and mean. This week we’ve been exploring Canada. We’ve been on mosquito infested hikes (more on that later!), attended some fun ranger programs and been to some yummy sweet shops. Lets start with the sweetest option, the candy shop. It was very […]
For our first full day in Glacier National Park I signed us up for a guided tour in one of the historic 1937 red busses. We met our guide at 8:30 (too early in the minds of the kids) and even though it was 47 degrees outside, he immediately asked for help converting our bus

If you have read Jacks post: He lies, I crush him at Bad Tommy and when he wins, he barely wins. This week when we were leaving Yellowstone we decided to stop in the national forest 🌳 to see a visitor center because Daddy wanted to know why there were dead trees standing in the
We have been taught a game similar to badminton called badtommy. We named after Mr. Tom, who we met while staying in the Tetons. You use rackets and a shuttle cock to try and get points and the first person to get to eleven points, or two more points than your opponent, whichever is more.

Friday we went on a drive with Ms Kristie’s dad, Mr Bruce. He used to be a tour guide for Yellowstone, so he knew a lot about the park. He mostly talked about the hydrothermal features of the park. These features are the result of a millions of years old volcano that covered pretty much

This week we were at Yellowstone and we saw wolves. We drove to the best spot to see them and we found them. We had a great time watching the wolves. We couldn’t get the best view because it was a few miles (maybe one or two) away but we could see a pretty good
Those who know us well, know we enjoy coffee. Now, we don’t enjoy coffee the way normal people enjoy it. We need it to have been roasted within the past week, be a light to medium roast, and single origin beans. Then it has to be made in a pour over method with a paper

The kids asked to take Friday “off” from early wake-ups, museums, hikes, etc. We agreed and scheduled a day that was to be anything they wanted to do. Their major idea was to take the Jackson Hole tram to the top of the ski mountain and walk around the area. But Aleah insisted that it

I’ve had some great foiling sessions since we left DC. Down the East Coast as we stayed in one great beach after another I expected to get in some winging and I wasn’t disappointed. Since we left the coast I’ve also found some wind and water in Missouri, South Dakota, Nebraska, and today I checked
