Day #206

Lakeside take 3.

Nathan and Leah out in front of the Hoover Auditorium.

We had a free afternoon today so we ran home from Richwood, still working on getting Kristi's room ready for the school year, packed an overnight bag just in case, and headed North. We did find out that we can have the kids take a bathroom break, and pack an overnight bag, and be in the van headed out in less than 20 min! Not to shabby!

The reason we went is a couple of weeks when we were up there I entered some pictures in the Annual Lakeside Photography Show, and I was dying to see how I did! So we headed up to Lakeside, and as always we did our normal thing. We swam, we ate Sloopy's Pizza, Went to look at the Photography show and then had our Toft's Ice Cream Yum. We were there for a total of 4 hours, on a 3 hour pass. we were there as long as it took us to drive there and drive home!

Yeah we didn't stay over night because we may be crazy at just dropping everything in a moment to go somewhere, but were not stupid to pay $250.00 for a hotel room. I don't even know what was going on up there but I knew we would make the 2 hour drive rather that stay for that price!

Before we left we did have to go to the Super Walmart and buy all of the Kraft Sizzling Salad kits that they had in stock. These things are Awesome! A review is here. But don't run out to buy them just yet. They are only available in the Canadian Market, but it does look like they do sell them in the states, but only in regions that are close to Canada, IE The Great Lakes Region. And maybe these are in a test market in the US. But we bought the last 3 they had in stock! Yummy!!!
