After Tea? What next?

So, what do you do after tea?Monster Trucks!?  Oh yeah! The sheer power,the roar,
the dust, the speed,
and those tires, oh yeah!

Every time one of the kids lets out a 'not another tea room' comment, or something similar, we are quick to remind them that vacation is not all about what they want to do.  During the course of the week, we try to schedule something of interest for everyone.So, when this monster truck adventure appeared on the highway as we were returning from tea, it seemed the perfect complement to our day and everyone was excited to jump on board.  And fortunately an older and wiser Brother-in-law was happy to stay off the Monster Truck and snap a few photos. 

Grave Digger.  Oh Yeah!  Afternoon Tea.  If we must.

Too funny, you are such a sport to do this! Perfect for boys, who seem to love dirt! One of mine was, I think, the poster child for Pig Pen of Charlie Brown fame. he always had to wear "outfits" and they were usually dirty by the time he had been out 10 minutes.

And they (sometimes) say we tea lovers are frumpy -- ha!
