Road Trip Day 12

Today was another fun filled day in central PA. My husband's sisters both headed back civilization yesterday evening, so our party is now down to six. But that didn't stop those of us left behind to playing a hard core game of croquet this afternoon.

The other fun activity that we did today, was we headed into town and visited a fancy grocery store. Everyone was required to buy something that they had never eaten before. We then came home and cooked a big dinner using all our unusual ingredients. I wouldn't recommend yucca root. And prickly pear isn't all that great either. But I enjoyed the okra.

Tomorrow we'll head back out onto the road. I've enjoyed spending the last few days with family. But when loosing at croquet and eating okra are the highlights of ones day, it proves that you live in a very remote area.


Joke of the Day

Decartes was standing at a train station. A train went past and the man standing next to him asked, "Was that the 9:47 train?"
Decartes looked at his watch and said, "I think not." Then he disappeared.

Can't wait to see your pictures.

Just letting you know I have not cracked your book yet. Not that I don't want to I am just trying to find the time I can sit down with a good chunk of time.
