Vacation: Erwin and Heading Home

I'm almost done with the vacation posts.
You can see why it took so long.
We did a lot of things while on vacation!



Aunt Shirley!



Uncle Gary & Aunt Janie's.
That's Connor in the distance on a four wheeler.



He roamed all over that freshly mowed pasture.



I think he enjoyed himself.


We were successful in visiting family in Erwin.
Not so successful in getting pictures of people.
We're going to have to work harder to do that next time.
We visited aunts, uncles, and cousins.
We got our beloved Seavers pies.
We also got milkshakes from the Dari Ace.
Sadly, we did not get to the fish hatchery, Saddle Shop, or Fishery Park.
That might be a first for us.
We'll have to add those to the list for our next visit.

On our way home we had to stop at Clinch Mountain again. :)



The elusive teenager.




It was a little too bright to get a good non-squinting family photo so
I opted for a shadow and foot pic instead!




We weren't sure exactly when we were heading home so we left our options open.
By the time we decided, the place we camped at on the way down was booked. :(
Surprisingly, the KOA in Renfro Valley had cabins available.
We decided to get a cabin because we just didn't want to unload the camping gear one more time.
That and we had it perfectly packed... not to mention we were pretty tired.



We only got was what absolutely necessary from the van.
We didn't even get the chairs out.
This is when we discovered that Connor's swimming trunks were missing.
So much for cooling off in the pool.



Seems like all KOA's have a pool but
this one had a jumping pillow!



It wasn't the pool but I think Connor enjoyed himself anyway.
At one point there were several other kids and a game of tag emerged.



The next morning we headed the rest of the way home.
That was the second time I got my hand quilt out during our vacation.
Indiana is quite boring. No mountains to look at.
So that finally concludes our vacation escapades... sort of.
I have one more post of things we acquired while out and about.
