Day 3
(March 7)
Dad works for a company called Northrop Grumman and works out of Fort Leavenworth, so we went to visit him and look around (We spent time in Leavenworth!)
My stupid camera ate through all of its batteries before I could get pictures of all the cool stuff in the museum (full of carriages, horses, and other stuff I can't remember...see why I needed a camera!)
But it was pretty neat - living on the east coast, there's a lot about the mid-west that I don't know, so it was certainly a learning experience.
This is the pathway that many settlers used to get to the Missouri River, which used to be right there, and it's awesome to stand there and just imagine all of the thousands of early Americans that traveled there many years ago.

| Playing with the fake mustache we got from the thing-a-ma-thing at the Chinese Restaurant (which was FANTASTIC!!!) |

| This was the funniest thing in the world to watch - the squirrel wouldn't leave the bird feeder alone and it was so stinkin' cute! He fell a few times, but he always got back up and kept on trying. Lessons for life, right? |

| Fortunes from the cookies at the Chinese Restaurant - I found those first two amusing. |
Well that's day 3! Pretty fun - minus trying to fit 6 people (1 in a car seat) in a 5 seater car!
