Thu. July 4th... Day 21

Happy Fourth of July everyone! Today we didn't go to any parades or firework shows. There probably weren't any because of the fire danger. We went back to the dunes in the morning and went almost to the beach. We did make it to this HUGE hill/dune thingy and it was about a 45 degree angle and 40ft to the top. I wish I got a picture of Nick going down on the boogie board! I did get some other pictures of Mackenzie and Reid going up and mom coming down. When I went down on the boogie board I made it 4/5 of the way down and the board got stuck and I did a face plant. Talk about whiplash! It took me a minute to walk it off.

After we had to check out from the dunes place we went to this new place called Carmel by the River RV Park. It could only fit "Carmel by the River RV Pa" on the GPS, so it kept saying we were arriving in Pennsylvania. Anyway, this place was out in the middle of nowhere and the road was so tiny and twisty we could hardly believe that it was out here. Then we saw a sign that said, "Whew! You made it this far!" How much more was there?!?!?! Next we had to go down a steep narrow hill with a sharp turn at the bottom to finally get to the park. A miracle we made it!

We signed in and got parked. About an hour after we arrive this kid runs up to Mackenzie and introduces himself. Germany (Jeremy), as Mackenzie called him, was 5 1/2 and LOVED to collect rocks. He kept popping up throughout the day saying hi and running around the small loop with Mackenzie. He was really cute! We had a nice cook out anniversary dinner for mom and dad at the RV and had Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream for dessert.
