We took Elliot to visit Gam Gam’s family in Greenfield, OH for Memorial Day Weekend. We left Saturday morning with Gam Gam and Slappy. We took the 5 hour drive and stretched it to nine, making stops at McDonald’s with an awesome playplace and a diner in Ripley. Elliot got a tiny “translucent” pie. We got to Pappy and Juanita’s shortly before Lisa and her kids. Pappy and Juanita showed us their swinging area and we had a cook-out with burgers.




Here are Pappy and Eliot playing “Ba!”
We went for and after dinner walk and Elliot rode in his stroller, in a wagon, on people’s heads, and walked.




Elliot helped some…
We shouted “1, 2, 3, Go!” and lifted him off the ground or spun around and shouted. Eventually, Elliot was saying “2, Go!” Later, we put Elliot to bed and I kicked some booty at Monopoly!
The next day, Elliot and I had some Cheerios.

After a mid morning nap, Lisa fixed Elliot’s hair and Pappy tried to teach Elliot ow to whistle with his hands.


Then we headed over to Aunt Kelly’s for a cook out and pool party!











Here is Elliot saying “2… Go!” for the camera!
We went back to Pappy’s and played more croquet. Elliot went on a car ride to look at some tents with Gam Gam, Slappy, et. al. Logan and I followed with Patrick and Heather to see a very large campground with at least one round permanent tent.
We left early the next day and stopped at the original KFC in Corbin Kentucky for lunch.
