What would summer be without a long road trip? We decided to drive about 14 hours out to California to visit Carl’s grandpa. He has been very sick so we decided it was time to go visit. It was a low-key vacation. It was fun for Emilee to see where Carl spent his summers as youth. The city is located in wine country and Emilee had never seen so many vineyards. Somehow we failed to get any pictures. Here a just a few pictures of the things we did.
This is an "art" tree that you see driving across the Salt Flats.
This is O'Brian, Aunt LaLa's Dog.
This was a vacation of "big doggies" for Kimee. She
loved the dog and would tell it to "sit"and it would sit.
She also liked putting her hands in his mouth. Somehow,
the dog got all the attention and we forgot to get a picture
with Aunt LaLa. She cooked us a really good dinner one
night after visiting Grandpa in the nursing the home.
Herman was at Grandpa's house the whole
time we were there. We would come home and Kimee
would call out "Herman." This dog is still a puppy so
sometimes Kimee would get him wound up and then
he wanted to play but Kimee wasn't quite so ready
to play.
These are donuts from Buttercream Bakery. They
are sooo good but you can only one or two before you
get sick. Of course, we couldn't let Kimee miss out on
the good stuff so here she is eating her Apple Fritter.
(Don't worry she didn't eat the whole thing.)

Sounds like a vacation of dogs that Elli would have also loved! Elli is very glad that Kimee is back from what she thought was a long vacation, maybe too long.
