Day 7

Layton to Selah....10 hours.....688 miles. Whew! We are in Washington!!!!! We made great time. Assisted by the early start to the day (on the road by 7am) and infrequent stops (the kids were still tired from our Lagoon day yesterday) we made it to Selah by 5pm Pacific Standard Time. The now 3 hour time difference from when we LEFT the East Coast to now has made for some very early mornings. Unfortunately it doesn't also equal early evenings...the kids still manage to stay up until well past 9pm. Granted, it is usually because we are doing some sort of family activity. We are SO excited to be here and look forward to concluding our cross-country travels tomorrow with only a 4 hour drive. Visiting with Grandma Reynolds has been a highlight of the trip. She has a closet full of wonderful toys...among them a giant doll house with "my little ponies" AND a marble shoot. Brian and Brogan (mostly Brian) have enjoyed creating marble shoots and racing marbles down the creations. It will certainly be a family favorite during the next few months of visits.
