Yesterday wasn’t terribly exciting. I had a number of things I could do, but I wasn’t really interested in any of them! I did clean up the pile of camping things in my kitchen (Eric emptied the Jeep and dumped everything on the kitchen floor). And I did the camping laundry so that it wasn’t just sitting in a hamper. Other than that, I mostly goofed off!
After dinner last night (I felt ambitious, so we had chicken and gravy and biscuits!), Eric wanted to go for a walk. It was windy and had been looking like it might rain for most of the evening, but we went anyway. We decided just to walk around our (smaller) side of the development, which was a good idea because it started to rain when we were about halfway done! 
At first it was just a sprinkle, but it was pretty much pouring by the time we got to our cul-de-sac. So we were VERY wet by the time we got home! But it was a fun little jaunt anyway!
Today, Karen & I are joining Deb and the girls for a trip to the zoo. It’s supposed to be a beautiful day for it, so that’ll be nice, and it will be fun to watch Kelly look at the animals. And since Deb gets them home for afternoon naps, it won’t even take up most of the day! Gotta love that!
Oh and here’s the skunk from our camping adventure!
It looks like that little guy could cause quite a stink! I’m glad he didn’t decide to leave you with any unneccessary odors!!
Darn good question, Michelle!!!
If Eric cleaned out the jeep, why didn’t he put everything away instead of dumping it in the kitchen?
That sounds like a long way to drive to the zoo for such a short trip – if she’s going to be home by afternoon nap time.
Have fun at the zoo! It’s definitely more fun with little kids who get so excited to see the animals!!
I’ve never heard of that book.
“New Kid in Town” was the name of that book…actually we talked about it after the skunk left. Carrie remembered it too!
The skunk reminds me of the Janeatte Oak book mom read to us once about the skunk.
