Nikki made this leather mud flap for a bike. She is an AMAZING artist!
59 miles today! It was certainly an adventure! The big guy and I talked for the first 4 hours then he rested in the back for the next 3. He didn't take a nap but stayed cheerful and sweet the whole time! I am so lucky! He was pretty wild when we got here but he went to sleep as his head hit the pillow.

We'll see how tomorrow goes. It's an even longer day...

Thanks, Row! We did a lot of singing about Uncle Row Row and his farm. Big Brother can't wait for farm camp. Although he does notice that you don't have as many animals as the other farmers.
