Staycation Escape

Thursday, the ceaseless rain was still plaguing us, but the posse and I made a run for it.
Let the packing begin.

Chester tries out Cole's old backpack. His confusion is obvious:  why can't Mum carry all our gear???

Columbus Riverwalk Park was laid under siege by the Smith war tribe.  Check out the guys' war gear. Totally battle ready.

For once, I'm the happiest camper of the bunch.  I'm off exploring and that's all that matters.
Right Garrett and Peter?

Right?
Maybe a homemade meal can mend some fences with the disgruntled crew.

Peruvian lime chicken with spicy jalepeno mayo and stuffed acorn squash with wild rice.

For dessert:  Argentinian cookies, stuffed with caramelized center.  Know how to make the best cookie stuffing?  Boil a can of sweetened condensed milk for 3 hours.

Voila!

Watch my blood sugar skyrocket!  Woohoo!
