Road Trip!
We took our time heading to Southern California and did some fun stuff on the way. We stayed the night at Whiskey Pete's, just outside of Vegas and Kelsi went on her first roller coaster ride. When it was built in 1996, it had the largest drop in the world. It was so scary...but not for Kelsi, she went on it once with me and then again with Dave! The next day we stopped at Calico, an old ghost town where they used to mine silver. It was over 80 degrees there, we loved the sunshine!!

A Joshua Tree!! Made me remember my days in Lancaster, CA. Kelsi loved spotting them and thinking of her cousin, Joshua.

It's hard to tell in this picture, but there were thousands of windmills in the middle of the Mojave Desert in California. It gave the kids something to look at for a little bit.
