We hoped yet again that the next day would bring better health, but alas, when the morning came Brittain began complaining about her throat…and her fever was creeping back up, so all four of us piled in the car and headed to an urgent care center up the road. After a throat swab where there were many tears shed (and yes, Brittain was crying, too), and a look in her ears, it was confirmed that there was an ear infection and possibly strep throat. The day was a wash, but it was raining anyway, so we enjoyed our time together and decided that we wouldn’t have had it any other way.
The rain cleared up by the evening, so we took advantage of it and cooked s’mores…grill style.
