th' ick

Abba and her mama have been sick sick sick for almost a week. It’s that gross stomach bug that’s been going around the Highlands and the Greenbrier River Valley. Abigail has eaten only about a tablespoon of food a day since Monday – somehow, though Hannah and Daddy-o have managed to avoid the worst of this malaise. Mama has been queasy and had an “upset stomach” – you know, sounds like rats running around in a sewer. I think we are on the mend, however.
(Try not to let your eyes hurt from Hannah's fashion choices. I wasn't up to making decisions about What Not to Wear...)
We took a long drive yesterday just to get out of the house. We didn’t mean to, but we needed up about 10 miles outside of Snowshoe at Cass Scenic Railroad in West Virginia. We even popped in to see the Radio Telescopes at Greenbank, West Virginia.

I didn’t get carsick, even though we drove up Route 92 and took some hairpin curves near Cass – and all we had to eat was some stale Cheerios. It was so good to have a change of scenery that it was well worth it!
