We designate Labor Day as our very big driving day. Not only we are determined to gain some significant ground on getting home, we are also trying to outrun the weather system that fell as snow in South Dakota and rain everywhere south of it. We quickly consider dropping down south about 5 hours and …
In the morning we try and sleep in since past week was the week of early mornings and late nights as we were adding remote schooling to our mental load.The pup does not agree and gets Sol up before the sunrise. We make the rest of the way to South Dakota with lots of plans …
Girls are in school in the morning while we are working/packing up camp. We are off to Bozeman in the afternoon, so, we are saying goodbye to Yellow Stone. What a glorious place. Girls (and I) don’t want to leave.We raise our sail once again and drive couple of hours with a stop by yellow …
This morning I join the girls at a dinette working. I am on my meetings while they are on their zoom calls. It is chaotic and crazy as girls still need quite a bit of oversight with their technology and scheduling and we are trying to figure out how to work in between it all. …
Aug. 24th-27th, 2017 It’s 3:30 am. We roll out of bed to begin our first kids-less adventure. We are quiet, each one of us going through our own version of parental hell/guilt.

Sasha, who has her PE class, is jumping around the trailer while I am catching coffee cups raining from the counter. May be we need to level the trailer a little.Afternoon is glorious, sunny and warm but …
We are up before dawn as we need to set up for the 1st day of school. The girls will be using their computers for Zoom sessions at our dinette as it is too cold outside. Dinette also doubles as mine and Sol’s bed, so, we need to be out of it and having assembled …
