Sadly, we had a change of plans when Drew’s grandma passed away. We were still at Voyageurs Park when she passed. We tried to think of anyway that we could all make it home, but due to our remote location & short timeframe, the best we could do is pool our resources to get Drew home. It was really important to both of us that he was there to support his aunt & uncle. So we got up at 5a the next day to drive to the Twin Cities. Once we got Drew dropped off at MSP to catch his flight, the kids & I went back to get moved into our campsite & setup camp.
The morning of her memorial, the kids & I had a moment of quiet to honor Gma and to let all of those at the memorial know that we were with them in spirit.
We spent the next few days working on school work, taking multiple bike rides a day, and soaking up some pool time.


After a few days back in AR, Drew flew back into MSP. I drove the camper into the city so we could continue east the next morning.
