10 days, so we should have it back in time for our trip to Australia.\u00a0 I&#8217;ll update you when I find out more.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">Well time to get to my school work done.\u00a0 Have a great week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Its been a while since my last post.\u00a0 The days of snow covered ground have dicipated into the soggy soil below.\u00a0 As the ice melts away from the shore we&#8217;ve scurted along the the mirror smooth water in our aluminum canoe.\u00a0 The ice moves around in the wind and can cut you off if you [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9,15,20,24],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-739","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-friends","category-minnesota","category-summer","category-work"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/bbryson.com\/bill\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/739","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/bbryson.com\/bill\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/bbryson.com\/bill\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/bbryson.com\/bill\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/bbryson.com\/bill\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=739"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/bbryson.com\/bill\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/739\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/bbryson.com\/bill\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=739"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/bbryson.com\/bill\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=739"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/bbryson.com\/bill\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=739"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
