day 27 and 28

utah, nevada, idaho and oregon.  amazing.  the drastic changes in terrain were astounding.  prairies, canyons, mountains, rolling hills, snow, rain, blinding sun...the whole bit.  by the way, idaho is way nicer than it gets credit for.  just for the record.

allie really wanted to make sure she got a close up of all of it.

and more history.  baker city, oregon.

any trip to the midwest would not be complete without a trip to cracker barrel.  which is like abc restaurant...on crack.  we also continued our tradition of keeping the kids occupied by making cutlery alphabet.  all i'm gonna say is that the gift shop sold gaither "promise tea" with a quote from one of their uplifting songs on each teabag. 

cliff also put in some time teaching our kids to be parkour specialists.  we plan to take our act on the road someday.
