Appleport Lane to County Road ZZ

We recently returned from a lovely vacation in Door County. During our last vacation, I started a tradition of vacation ABC's. You can read more about that here. It was a fun way to spend the time on a long car trip. When Emily gets older it will be a fun way to encourage letter knowledge and narrative skills. Best of all, it will be a way to remember our trip.

Here are the ABC's of our trip.

A is for Appleport Lane (where our cabin was)
B is for "Bobblehead girl" -- Emily bouncing while eating dinner
C is for Cabin -- "The Refuge"
D is for Detours (five!)
E is for Emily learning to crawl
F is for Fishboils, Farmer's Market (Seaquist) and fall foliage
G is for Goats at Al Johnsons
H is for Hugs, lots from Emily
I is for Imagination--The miniature gnome home at the library

Gnome home at the Sister Bay/Liberty Grove Library

J is for Junkyard Trail (long story)
K is for Kindle by candlelight
L is for Liberty Grove Library, Loon sighting
M is for Mission Grill--Mom and Dad's Night Out
N is for Nature walks
O is for On the swing at the water's edge with Grandma and Papa
P is for the Piggly Wiggly (love that name!) and Pioneer Living -- no electricity, water or phones for 2 days
Q is for sQueals of delight all week long and even more when we got home
R is for the Rickety Pier
