Day 22
Ian and I were in the same bed last night, and Ian is a tosser and a crowder. Needless to say, I didn’t get any sleep. Then, he was up at 5:20am, and woke his brother not long after. I spent much of the day in a near coma stupor.
We had breakfast, bid Dana and the kids goodbye for the day, then walked over to the pond and fed the catfish.
We saw 4 turtles:
The kids had a good time:
After we ran out of food to feed, we walked back to the house and the kids and Auntie M took a swim. (I wasn’t feeling it today.)
When the kids got home from school, they all swam some more, then came in to play Dance Central.
It was good to sit and visit with my Gillis fam. It was short, but I’ve promised that they’ll be first stop on any future trips, so they’ll get us while we’re fresh – and we’ll stay more than a day! They’ve been very good sports with my last minute changes.
We were supposed to go to the Carlsbad Caverns yesterday/today, but they got cut out just like the last trip. We arrived in Arizona early, and now we’re too tired to stay longer. It’s been an incredibly amazing, and awe inspiring trip, but we’ve all hit the end of our endurance!
So, here’s to the last night on the road, and good sleep for the long drive tomorrow! 😋
