All of our regular lodging locations were booked already. I'm guessing many folks got their tax returns and were taking much needed winter getaways.
Saturday, I felt off. I told hubby we should just pack up and head home Sunday, and not do our usual Sunday trip taking (like we normally do). He agreed with it. Even Saturday night I felt off, and didn't feel like eating anything.
Sure enough Sunday, I woke up sick, and by 5pm, had a fever of 102°F and almost all the flu symptoms you could expect.
The kids enjoyed their Amish baked donuts and bottled Sarsaparilla. They also, devoured the cinnamon/raisin bread. All of which, I did not partake in. I guess we'll have to make another trip to stock up on cheese and foods from the Nature store (where we located more organic meats), and found the best natural cough syrup that works great (but tastes horrible).
Conversations heard while heading to my bed to sleep:
"I gotta Instagram this!" squealed my 13 year-old taking a photo of her bottle of Sarsaprilla.
"This is on my bucket list!" added my 19 year-old, also holding her bottle of Sarsaprilla.
My son got sick over the weekend too, so the cough syrup, and natural loose leaf tea were all needed anyway. My son took out a sharpie, marked his initial on the top of his Sarsaparilla, and put it in the fridge.
I need to wash my bedding, but I am still running a fever. And yes, they are getting washed in hot water and dried in the dryer (yep! This pioneer is wanting all those bugs killed off today).
Lola, our tetra tint hen is sick. I hope my daughter can look at her today.

I do love that pretty red barn!
