July 26th, 2016 The trip is quickly winding down and TeamHovis is getting a bit spent on energy. The whole team slept in until late but the Coaching Staff was awoken in the middle of the night to a 50 person fight breaking out on the street below. It was a like a train wreck…

Day 11 – No Hurry 2016: Volcanoes & Waterfalls
June 25th, 2016 Sorry to those of you following us closely, we have been posting a day late. Too much fun! It was another stellar day in California. As we’re getting up and ready for the day E went out on the front porch and sat by herself for awhile to enjoy the morning. In…
Day 10 – No Hurry 2016: Playground, Kissing, and Dorie
June 24th, 2016 TeamHovis set out to have the slowest day on record. Mission accomplished. The kiddos slept in and we started the day off with breakfast at the hotel. Great accommodations at the Best Western Plus TreeHouse. Great little road side family hotel with wonderful views of Mt Shasta. Through some fortuitous timing, we…
Day 9 – No Hurry 2016: No Pic Thursday
June 23rd, 2016 The Coaching Staff failed to take a single good picture today. Sorry! Who loves getting up at 4:00 in the morning and making sure Lady Coach sees the joy(?) in it as well? Oh, Poppy… Getting up before the sun does not a good vacation day make. But it’ll turn itself around!…
Day 8 – No Hurry 2016: Grumpies and Smores
June 22nd, 2016 Well TeamHovis hit our low today. The day started off promising with Lady Coach getting a chance to sleep in. After that it was 5 hours of more or less continual grumpiness for all team members – maybe or maybe not related to the fact that Coach allowed the kiddos to watch…
Day 7 – No Hurry 2016: Conquering Kayaking and Ocean World
June 21st, 2016 Today was a day like any other day, if your days are full of kayaking, sharks, stingrays, crock-pot meals, pinnipeds, and Shubies. The Lady Coach nailed our breakfast of pigs in a blanket. Shortly after eating, the kiddos informed me it was time for a soak in the hot tub. So soak…
Day 5 – No Hurry 2016: Kayaking & Snorkeling on the Smith River
June 19th, 2016 “This is paradise!” – E and Gman when describing our cabin and view of the river. Happy Father’s Day, Coach! Finally being in a “normal” house with “normal” bedrooms means kiddos actually slept until 7:30ish this morning! Or at least that was the thought until the big kids mention they’ve already watched…
Day 1 – No Hurry 2016: San Fran in a Hot Minute
June 15th, 2016 Have you ever woken up three children at 4:45 am to catch a flight? Well its the alternate definition of funny, funny. One of our highly recommended travel hacks is the “stay at a hotel right by the airport the night before an early flight” trick. Saves you an hour of drive…
