Father's Day 2020

The best thing I've ever done for my kids is to have this man (allegedly) father them.  

We had to pack up from our Oregon campsite, but we only headed to Chehalis (sort of the midpoint) and doing one more night at our first Thousand Trails park, making use of the "free" membership with the purchase of an RV.  


Like KOA, the Thousand Trails have some non-camping features that kids love: mini-golf, pools, country stores.  However, this summer, none of those are open.  Wes found a golf ball in the bushes, and Piper found a stick, and together they played all 18 (18!! Overkill, anyone?) holes in a hilarious gift to Papa: Play happily together for an hour.


Kyla loved the castle with fierce dragons!


Speaking of facilities that aren't open...

This guy guards the pool.

Sigh. So empty.

The tablets were still at home, and both girls found themselves engrossed in reading, while Wes found himself engrossed in snuggling with on Kyla after a family bike ride.  Typical.  🙄

Our site was close to a view of the valley.  We made our taco dinner and ate dinner on the benches up here.

Dwayne and I felt even more justified with the No Tablet rule when Wes could barely be entreated to eat his favorite dinner because he was too busy bringing gravel to the rooftop of the play structure. He had such a great afternoon of solitary play.

Piper was pleased for the warm gravel for another reason. 


Happy Father's Day, Babe!  It's a pleasure parenting with you.
