I\u2019ve been on a trip the past couple weeks to visit my family in Indiana. We did some camping (at a campground aptly named Raccoon Lake)<\/p>\n\n\n

The raccoons were BOLD. We almost had chocolate-free s\u2019mores thanks to this one but thanks to my sister-in-law\u2019s quick reaction she saved our Hershey\u2019s from being coon chow! <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

We enjoyed some more lake days at a resort for my parents\u2019 anniversary (they loved their present)<\/p>\n\n\n

The pretty swans on Lake Wawasee!<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

And we enjoyed some of the other special things in the area\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n

Of course we also celebrated the Fourth of July. <\/p>\n\n\n

My father in law (seated) enjoys putting on a good fireworks show in his backyard. <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

In Arizona it\u2019s too hot to enjoy parades and outdoor things very much for the holiday but in Indiana we had pretty perfect weather this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In my little downtime, I went back to one of my November starts and worked on Jane Plenderleath. I have built most of her house. I forgot to bring one of the threads but made it an excuse to stop at Stitch N Frame and support the local economy!<\/p>\n\n\n

I brought four projects but only stitched on this one which is pretty typical for a vacation I guess! I\u2019m looking forward to stitching more now that we\u2019re home. It\u2019s always good to be on vacation and even better to be home afterwards!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I will leave you with one last collage of some of the more unique photos of our trip\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n

A cicada hatching\u2026I have never seen this in action before! fascinating! And he was so bright!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A zucchini grown by my dad which grew all wrapped around its vine. We dressed it in as a sea serpent\u2026as one does with unusually shaped veggies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And one of the several four leaf clovers I found on the trip. I admit I have a good eye for them and have been collecting four leaf clovers since I was a little girl. I have an album with over one hundred! My middle daughter has inherited the talent and found more than me on our trip. Probably a dozen! We\u2019re so lucky!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
