Day 608: Rockets and Camel Spiders

This morning Trish made “waffles” by frying Passover sponge cake in egg.  Try not to think about it too much:

Today’s Chol Hamoed project was learning about rocketry and building model rockets:

Before dinner, the kids and I went for a bike ride on the lake.  B flipped over an abandoned motorcycle component and found a camel spider.  It was a little over an inch long:

After almost two weeks in Las Vegas, we’re really enjoying our new back yard:

Day 607: At Last, Elbow Room

After a nice Shabbos and first two days of Pesach, today we left my parents’ synagogue parking lot (which, compared to last week’s RV park, was palatial) and drove south to park the RV at Jean Lake.  Before we made the drive, Trish made pancakes from almond flour:

The kids had a great day riding their bikes wherever they pleased, as we’re the only RV out here right now:

It’s quite windy, with more wind forecast for tomorrow, but we do have solitude:

Day 604: Las Vegas Urban RVing, Day 9

Today we gladly left the RV ghetto park and repositioned to my parents’ synagogue where we will be parked for the first two days of Passover. Trish finished replacing the fabric on the chairs:

She also finished up the holiday cooking:

Good Shabbos and happy Passover!  The blog will return on Monday.
