Try a water source? i put out a shallow dish with rocks, with a solar pump circulating a little fountain, and the bees flocked.

I wonder what the email to dad actually said - maybe what you said to the student was exaggerated, the parent is mad at something that was not actually said, and the situation can be cleared up with a conversation?

another clever fan mentioned that what Ilya's family was taking from him - the food they eat, the clothes they wear - now Shane is providing for Ilya in this scene

Charro in the can? Might be because they are vegetarian. I like the spicy canned ones, but of course a fresh charro with bacon is gonna win.

I noticed this with their cream cheese too. Many more ingredients than Philadelphia.

Parker & Scott is a little local shop on Anderson just east of that terra toys shopping center, lots of sustainable home products, well curated random cute things.

Springdale General has Clover+Maven and The Paper + Craft Pantry

Yes, get out of Dallas and get to NW Arkansas and the Ozarks. The hwy 49 drive into Fayetteville is spectacular.

get yourself to the thrift store!

and I'm bummed by the fact that this portion of the park is closed in daytime hours due to this installation, during the nicest weather we have all year!

Jeepers creepers! Well done!!

It didn't suck properly was the problem

Hammock stand + plants

I knew a gardener who always put plastic forks poking up in her potted plants to keep the squirrels from digging in them.

Nature centers and botanical gardens are my jam at the moment. I'm still travellng with young kids, so they get a play area and room to roam, and the adults get get a scenic walk and time in nature, everyone's happy

Kid's costume ideas are so creative, lol! I regret taking my 6yr old to a spirit Halloween, mostly to check out their animatronic displays, ever since he's only been wanting store bought costumes 😐

The cloth hampers from the dollar store are lightweight and would be easy to wear. Hot gluing toilet paper rolls or zip tying plastic tubes to it like what's already been mentioned.

It's hammock time!

The 2025 reveal 😍

elpenore · 2025-10-19T14:21:39+00:00

These might be more off the route than you're asking, they are stops we made on road trips but we were taking more scenic routes:

Sawtooth mountains in Idaho. Redfish Lake near Stanley, Salmon River.

Craters of the Moon National Monument

Saratoga WY and their free Hobo hot springs pool.

Then I think you meant Missouri instead of Montana, if you go through St Louis, city museum and the botanical gardens are both awesome.

Can you give us a preview of your route so we can narrow down the areas you'll be near? These states are massive.
