Oak City picnic

We changed things up a little in 2019 and instead of going to the derby went to Oak City for some quieter family time.

Dean has been doing much better with his anxiety but with this many people here for a visit we didn't dare push things.  He came home with me from the parade and we fixed Navajo Tacos for the family when they returned.  Then about 4 p.m. we headed east.

It's been long enough since going there that the littles had not seen it, and the teenagers hadn't for a very long time.

A picnic in the Ponderosa was just the thing for the family.  It was perfect:  quiet enough to keep the Grands calm, and plenty of things to discover.  I think this should be our new tradition.Sadly we were missing one group.
