Elliot was so excited to explore an abandoned cabin, find rusted artifacts, and animal bones including the skull of something like a marmot. Just like his dad. Just like his grandfather, too.

There were other cabins he really wanted to explore, but they required trudging through feet of snow, and we were not equipped. This was in Cordillera. Elliot wanted to see the house where he spent time as a newborn, but more importantly… explore the cabins.

We took the bones. I did not model taking the “sauce” (artifacts) because I don’t want to carry these things around for years.
