Jared, Win and Harriet headed out this morning for a 6 day trip to Acadia, leaving Dale, Huck and me behind.  I'm so excited for them.  Last year Jared and I went to Acadia and talked about how we wanted to bring the kids back when they were old enough.  Doing the math and realizing that Win would be 13 when Huck is 5 we realized that a family hiking trip was a ways off.  So Jared and the big kids are off touring national parks and the littles and I are holding down the fort.  Dale was bit sad that she didn't qualify as a big kid.  But she'll get a turn too.  I already miss them!
