As you have probably already heard, our overnight campout to Meek’s Bay has been cancelled. Justine and I sent out an email at the end of school today informing both crews that after long discussions with David, analyzing the weather on the Weather Channel, and determining what is best for our children, we have chosen to cancel the trip – but don’t worry, not all is lost. We still plan to go on an all day hiking adventure on Thursday. We will determine the location as the day approaches, but most likely it will be someplace in Truckee. If you signed up to chaperone and drive on the fieldwork, we are planning to use you on Thursday after you have a nice restful sleep in your warm comfy bed. 🙂
We still have a very full week ahead, even though we are not camping.
