mother's day

I went to REI today to get some equipment for my trip and for camping with Kelly. We are going to conquer Cold Mountain over Memorial Day weekend. The place was a mad house. Apparently there was a huge sale...so awesome for my wallet! But the lines were really long and the people in front of me were stock piling for what appeared to be the next ten years of their lives.

Turns out they were planning a cross country trip. Husband. Wife. And four kids,one of which was only four years old. I asked them what they were up to and the wife told me everyone thought they were crazy to be traveling with such a heard, but that she had done a similar trip when she was a child. And I got so excited for them. And I could just picture my future kids playing with lizards and picking flowers and cuddling up next to me in the snucg little tent.

A-mazing.

Good luck to you folks out there. Have a safe and wonderful adventure. Your kids will NEVER foget this summer.
