On Our Way To PEI







We left Austin Wednesday morning headed eventually to Prince Edward Island. We spent the first night in Sandusky OH. Thursday we continued on to Kristi's stopping at the Hill Cumorah to show Zeke. We are going to stop in Palmyra on the way home with Amanda so Zeke and Amanda can see all the sights then.

Friday, Kristi had a full day planned for us starting with picking blueberries. It was fun and easy for all of us as the bushes are tall so no stooping necessary. Then it was off on a quest to find the treasure with a stamp for the girls Quest Books. We first stopped at the Cornish-Windsor Covered Bridge - the longest wooden bridge in the US and the longest two span covered bridge in the world. The next covered bridge was where we were to find the treasure. Kristi has a book that describes each of the quests with clues on how to find the treasure. We looked for some time without any success. We finally decided that the recent clearing done for power lines must have destroyed all the landmarks necessary to find the treasure as we could not find the landmarks by the clues or the map. We finished the day with a delicious dinner Kristi made and then a "campfire" and some-mores. It was a great day.
