The Zimms joined us on our little adventure.  Although they were anxious for weeks prior to the trip, once we got there they never let us see them sweat.  In fact, Jim Zimm seemed as cool as a cucumber the whole way through.  It was a little more telling when Miss Zimm hid behind her screen the last night to avoid our furry friends.  All in all, they turned out to being perfect traveling companions for a few reasons.  AZ thinks Micah is funny, and I think Jim is funny.  We both have a toddler boy and infant girl.  They have Kate who is 5 and was a perfect little helper, and I am proud to report that she called me her BFF on the way home.  They were game for any sort of adventure, and most importantly….Miss Zimm packed Veggie Sticks.

All boy….and I don’t understand how these two could spend days upon days throwing rocks.
