"I don't want to rush you guys but I'd rather not frantically try to toss you out a back window if he's back earlier than we expect. I recommend doing a flyover of the general woods area before settling in so you don't get lost."
Bella opens the back door for them and hands each one a slice of bread to carry away.
"And now we unpack, I guess," says Robin. She hauls her suitcase up the stairs.
Charlie and his occupant are back not long after. He orders a pizza rather than have the girls cook their first night there. "What do you get on pizza, Robin?"
"Oh, whatever's going," she says amiably. "As long as there's no anchovies."
Over pizza, Bella says, "So Dad, we accidentally got Robin all enthusiastic about the national park and she wants to go. I have a nasty bruise on my ankle and want to walk even less than usually but I think it'll be all cleared up by like Tuesday, can you take off Tuesday do you think?"
"Sure," says Charlie, glancing at Robin. "Long as it's only for the morning. Got some things to do in the early afternoon."
"We can pack lunches and have a picnic in the woods and then go home," suggests Andi.
"Sure," shrugs Charlie. "Picnic in the woods. You need a ride to the grocery store for," he waves a hand and says vaguely, "picnic things, between now and then?"
"Sure, sandwiches and little tubs of cut-up melon and stuff," shrugs Bella.
"And those sugar cookies they have at the store here, I always miss those when we go back to Arizona."
"They're soooooo soft," says Andi, "and they have sprinkles in them, and I don't know what they even do to them because there's nothing special in the ingredient list but they're better here than anyplace else."
