Cottage
We were at the cottage for the last three days. It was a lot of fun. When we first arrived Ellie and I right away wanted to do our row boats. So my mom and dad assembled them. They were EXTREMELY hard to row. That night we went to a Fourth of July party a […]

It was a pretty dull day that included one amazing little adventure. Four hours into our drive we arrived at Pompey’s Pillar National Monument in the middle of Montana. Pretty much the middle of nowhere, just fields and mountains surrounding us. Most of the drive was along the Yellowstone River, nearly the exact same route William […]

We’re officially on the way home. One of the downsides to booking hotels in advance is there’s less flexibility in where we end on any given day. We had initially planned on spending more time in Yellowstone this morning, but decided that we’d had enough of the stupid people and didn’t have time for a […]
