Before the beet harvest started, we were able to take a side trip into Fargo, ND. We visited the Red River Zoo! While there, we signed up for their zoo membership. Mom did her homework and knew that this was a good zoo to join. Not only is it a cheaper membership – only $80/year – but it gets us into many AZA zoos completely free! This has been the
During our stay outside of Medora, North Dakota, we took advantage of the Every Kid Outdoors program to explore Theodore Roosevelt National park. Located in the Badlands of North Dakota, this park was an absolute wonder of history and natural beauty.

Bremerton’s Free Bug and Reptile Museum This was an absolutely adorable little museum built around little adventures. In addition to the many live bugs and reptiles on exhibit, they also had hundreds of other pinned bugs and beetles on display on boards. The kids
A couple of days ago we had an amazing experience, or I should say The Boy did. Earning his wings with the Young Eagles program! Have you heard about the Experimental Aircraft Association? Neither had I until Mom found out about their Young Eagles program. In a nutshell, the EAA hosts regular, completely free, 1st flights for children from ages 8 -17. The day begins with a brief ground school
While there is no way to make this an all-inclusive list, and to date, my only experience camping is car camping, here is a list of campgrounds and places we’ve seen in Washington State and a little bit about them from our perspective.
