We had such a great time with friends at Lincoln Rock this past weekend. It was our first (hopefully annual) “Ditch the Kids” trip, and we spent four days kid-free camping and skiing. We had a great time! The Schmalzes have a huge fifth wheel so we had the luxuries of home like microwaves and refrigeration, plus the Bonnells came ready for anything with bikes, kayaks, tennis rackets, frisbees, and more. It was the perfect combination of relaxing and playing… with a LOT of laughter. We are so grateful to have good friends. Special thanks to Grandma and Grandpa Cole for making this possible. The other two couples had to leave Monday night but we stayed through Tuesday morning, so we even got some time just the two of us, with s’mores and a lazy morning and a Harley ride when we got home.
