I LOVE biscuits and sausage gravy!!! And Robert loves our dehydrator (Thanks Mac and Molly!) So we decided to try out dehydrated sausage gravy and biscuits on the trail this summer. The biscuits made it just fine, no dehydration required. The gravy on the other hand was interesting. It was kind of like eating Velveeta cheese that tasted like gravy (nothing wrong with that!)

Mackie’s 86th Birthday!
My grandma, Mackie, turned 86 today! I hope I am enjoying life and looking this good at 86! She had a wonderful marriage, fantastic kids (one is my mom and the other is my god mother), and amazing grand-kids (if I say so myself!) Such a testament to her life and how she raised her daughters. She was the love of Popeye’s live (my granddad) and is the inspiration of our lives!
Love you Mackie!!!

We recently went to Glacier National Park through Montana and ended in Yellowstone National Park. We had a fantastic trip and I can’t wait to post more info! Stay tuned for photos and stories.

We recently went to Copper Lake with some friends. Here are some pics from one of my friends that joined us on the trip. Thanks Jon!
Camping: Fire
I’ve been trying to learn new things on the trail this year. My first project is “Kelly Does Fire”. I’ve never built a fire by myself so I thought I’d share my first one!
- Robert built this one to show me how. I built one on the second night.
- The wood all set up.
- Me, with the first starter!
- Me, afraid of the fire starter!
- Actually starting the fire.
- There we go! A working fire. It was a rather cold weekend (late May in the PNW) so we were very grateful for a campfire!
Cheers,
K
