Donuts, Lavender, and Goonies Land: Sharlotte and Aunt Steve in Astoria

Sharlotte and her uncle, "Aunt Steve," recap recent Middle School Miles adventures while traveling cross-country and doing online middle school. In a small town in Washington, they visit a donut shop twice—highlighting a warm raspberry jam donut—and a local butcher, where they buy flank steak and tri-tip. They also stop at a lavender farm with a field of lavender, a shop selling lavender items, and fizzy lavender lemonade that Sharlotte shakes too violently. After driving over a high, rollercoaster-like bridge with a KFC at the bottom, they arrive in Astoria, Oregon, home of The Goonies, and plan to visit the local film museum and sites. Sharlotte discusses schoolwork, getting paid to read, an upcoming package with camp clothes and gear, going to summer camp on Sunday, and later flying back to Florida.
