21 June 2024 – Trip Day 82
So to start, let’s back up a bit to the night of the 20th. We got hit by another monsoon (thunderstorm) that night. I heard some noise above our bedroom and went out to investigate.
What you see here is a large (2-3 in) branch of the tree rubbing on the slide when the wind gusts would hit it. When it wasn’t windy, it wasn’t a problem. The rubbing was a bit of a problem for me, but fortunately the storm passed shortly after this (at around 1130pm) and we moved the rig a smidge the next day to eliminate the issue.

Two little sleepy heads in bed. Garrett will sometimes sleep in his own bed, but usually will wake up around 6 or 7 in the morning and come to our bed. Randal will wake up somewhat randomly throughout the night for another nursing session.
Another phone abduction. Another 100 pictures!
That evening we decided to go for a hike at the park. There was a little trail just past the end of the RV spots that took you out to a vista.

We hiked up to the overlook. Ducky was pretty much done at this point and only wanted to be carried. It was a bit windy up there!
Mama and Randal at the overlook.
I took Ducky back to the RV and Meagan and the big kids (and the littlest) went on to explore the arch trail further.
Kids at the arch!
Climbing to the top!
Back at home, Randal plays before bed.
