North Carolina

So Happy to be back in North Carolina! So many wonderful adventures with wonderful friends 🙂 What a happy vacation. It makes all this sleeping in the car worthwhile… Especially when we get to couch serf from time to time.

Montana

Well, we did it! So far so good. One of the benefits of not over planning a road trip is the freedom to follow any old road sign that catches your fancy… This one lead us into a very awesome cavern 🙂

Road Schooling

We may just be crazy enough to do this… Who wants to host this wild family and our mini RV? We made this map with all our friends in mind. Hoping to see most of you! And Vimala’s Curryblossom Café. We plan to leave tomorrow or Monday…

Our little prius is a road eater, she is so excited you can (almost) her her engine!

Any suggestions on places to stop along the way would be great. We have a limited time to make our Napa reservations… so it’s a tight trip, but we are flexible along the way.

Raw (almost) Banana Ice Cream

To me, this is haven. My family, sunshine, music and delicious vegan banana ice cream. These cones are not raw 🙂 but they are gluten-free. We make the ice cream by blending frozen bananas with some vanilla and chocolate chips. SO yummy.

After eating, our son turned his daddy into a faithful steed

Painting with Crystals

We painted as we normally do. When the paintings were dry, little crystals were sparkling up at us. The crystals were bigger on the places the paint on thickest.
