Off to sleep. Great dinner tonight by chuckwagon crew. Kids all asleep in the cabins. Adults in tents (yes it does seem a bit backwards)
We are getting ready to head up the hill to our campground and I don't think we will have cell coverage up there. This might be the last post for the evening.
I haven't posted lately. Sorry. Right now we are on the road back from the Oregon Trail Interpretive Center. It's a long bus ride but the kids are in high spirits. The bus has become the focal point of the trip as I thought it would.

We went to three interpretive centers and together they do an incredible job telling the story of Pacific Northwest history. I believe the kids have a pretty good understanding at this point,

It's back to camp at Emigrant Springs now. Gianna is on the bus PA doing a lesson with the kids about the exhibit we just saw.

Tomorrow we will be walking in the footsteps of the pioneers at Echo Meadows,

Very good weather continued,
