Today was another day for everyone to hang out at the trailer. Well, everyone except for Bobby, that is. You see, I did it again. When we were at my brother’s in September for his wedding, I left my keys at his house and didn’t discover it until we were over an hour away. This time, I left them at Mark and Kristine’s house. They were the ones who discovered it and called us Monday night as we were pulling into the campground which is about 45 minutes away. So today, Bobby made the trip one more time, this time to retrieve my keys. Thanks, dear. He did get to see Mark one more time and have a cup of coffee with him so he was pretty happy to go.

That big one on the awning isn’t a ladybug. It’s a leaf footed bug. They liked the trailer, too!
Elise and I hung out here, taking showers, eating lunch together and schooling. Good stuff. It has been warm here the past two days and we have discovered that the Airstream is a complete ladybug magnet. I suppose it is the warmth of the aluminum in the sun. We cannot go in or out of the trailer without letting a few in. We found out that one of the screens in the bedroom is bent just enough to let the ladybugs in. When we got back from our bike ride yesterday, there were over 30 ladybugs inside the trailer, mostly at that window and the roof vents. Those are closed today so we haven’t had too many inside. Our Dustbuster is getting a real workout!
