    At least you're travelling with your own toilet in case the delay becomes unbearable! Gramps

My Family's House (by Jordan)

-
It all started out with our adoption. We've been waiting for about 3 years to adopt a child. When my dad put the house on Zillow someone's wife wanted to buy it in 10 minutes. But the husband promised his wife a pool. So they didn't buy the house. There were a few others that I can't remember. But finally Melissa and Tim stepped up! They bought the house. We left March fifth. Tim and Melissa have a daughter named Brook. We are on March sixth now and we are enjoying our time at Poinsett State Park!

Food

As we traveled the country, we tried to experience local culture. We didn't have much time in each location, so we thought that one of the best ways to do this quickly was to partake of local foods. Therefore, in addition to our National Park theme , we also had a "local food" theme. As we hit each state, we ate a food famous in that state. Just an example; we didn't go off of this map We quickly came to realize that this is a very subjective endeavor. Before we started, I ignorantly assumed that each state would have one or two "famous" foods, making the selection process easy. Not true. First of all, most of what shows up on lists of foods by state is hardly "famous." It's more like "foods you will definitely find in this state and may or may not find elsewhere." Some states have a dozen such foods or more. Many states have the same "famous" foods (there is a lot of crossover with fruit and beef). Second, much of this food...

Narrows Too was on the Mount Desert Narrows. We could look across the water and see Mount Desert Island, which contains Acadia National Park.  When we went to Acadia, we went to the visitors center, checked in, and got our junior ranger books. Then we drove up Cadillac Mountain, the highest point in Acadia at 1,530 ft. We had fun playing on the rocks there. We also had fun taking pictures like we were falling off a cliff because from farther away, the rocks looked like a cliff. Since Cadallac Mt. was the tallest point in Acadia, it had some really great veiws. We were at the gift shop and dad came over holding some wild blueberries. We went back up to where he found them to look for more blueberries and to look for a small metal stamp that marked the true summit. When we went up there, I ran and jumped up on a bolder and I was startled to find the stamp there. It was about three inches in diameter. Later dad found a different stamp on a rock that was pointing toward the first stamp...
