Sunk cost fallacy aside, we made good use of our Discovery Pass while in Chelan. Alta Lake was the fourth place we used it.
We started our day by going to Walmart to try and get our oil changed. After dropping off our car and walking around for 30 minutes, we noticed our car hadn’t moved. We went to check only to find out the guy that would work on our car was coming in an hour late. So we left.
We went home and my mom made waffles, fulfilling one of our eating goals for the summer. He then had more fun shoveling sand on his granma’s legs.
We then packed and headed out to Alta Lake before it got really hot. We had a great time up there. It was mainly empty. Carly spent a ton of time floating in the water. And August played in the water a bit more than he has done at the city park. When he got tired my mom and I took him for a short walk and he fell asleep. We went back to our shaded spot in the grass and I read for the next 90 minutes as he slept in the carrier.
After he woke up and played a little more, we headed home. But first we stopped at the Rest Awhile fruit stand in Pateros and for milkshakes. August got to try peach, raspberry, and blackberry shakes. And he ran around, most interested in a broom, a bucket with cherry pits, and the display of sunglasses.
Back home Carly and I spent a lot of the evening packing up. But for dinner the whole lot of us walked up to the taco truck to pick up food. We came back to the house and ate out on the deck. August sat with us and ate a little of our food, but mainly went for the spaghetti from last night. He was looking quite orange by the end of it – not all of which had disappeared by to end of a long bath with Carly.
