Ventured out of the old homestead around 2 and encountered closed gates in two places on the gravel road. That's where a 10-year-old son comes in handy: he hopped out and hitched a ride on the gate as he opened it for us to pass through. The reason the gates were closed was because it was apparently mating season a while back. There are calves EVERYWHERE.

| A brown cow hung with 7 black calves. Do you think they cross-nurse? |

| Gorgeous snowy mountain with a bazillion cowels on the grass (that's what Sam calls them). |
We hit the McDonald's Playland for the 2nd day in a row. Yes, we got Happy Meals ... a splurge! Notice the seats! The McDonald's off I-80 in Evanston, Wyoming is the best! There are TVs in the bathrooms! Why they show CNBC in the women's bathroom is beyond me. Shouldn't they be showing SoapNet or something? I know, I'm sexist. Anyway, it's clean and everyone is nice and it's a huge play area and they have WiFi of course.

| Later, some ice cream. Mommy is a pushover! |
Stayed there 2 hours then hit the grocery store, which takes forever since I don't know where anything is and I'm herding cats the whole time. Then, OH MAN, see the picture below because after we drove around for a bit we hit major rush-hour traffic. Can you believe this?! Bumper to bumper.
 |
| The kids immediately got into our grocery store booty of froot rollups. Why must the sit on the table to eat? Oh, right, because I allow it! |
 |
| We call this kid Sammy the Olive. He loves to put massive olives on his fingers and partake. |
 |
| The night ended with me writing and Daddy (who got home by 9 p.m.!!!) reading to Sam. |
