Every trip teaches me something and this trip taught not save all the driving for the last day! I thought we did well with no more than 2-3 hours of driving per day. The problem is that we have been traveling 2-3 hours further from home each day so our drive back home was 8+ hours.

We slept in a little – but after yesterday’s 4:45am wake up call, anything would be sleeping in 😊 – packed our bags, our clean laundry (love having a washer and dryer at end of a trip), our snacks and cooler and said goodbye to the treehouse rental.

It was a lllloooooonnnnnggggg drive, but we snacked, and ate, and made the best of the drive.

We made it home after 9 hours and with some daylight to spare. Just enough time begin the battle with the mud 😳🥴😳

Some pieces were eventually just sacrificed to the trash… we had the very best time and cannot wait for our next adventure!
