5 states in 2 days.

We left Indiana on Tuesday, spent the night in Iowa, and then on Wednesday we were on the road for about 14 hours, until we stopped for the night in Laramie Wyoming. Sierra was a great co-pilot and an awesome traveler for such a long day.

Of course, she did say and do some things that really made the trip that much more enjoyable.



I am so glad that she drove back to Idaho with me. We truly made some memories.

On the road again ..........

Sierra and I headed west early Monday morning. Our first stop was back in Huntington Indiana to visit with my best friend Jerry and for Sierra to see Jerry and Jill and their sons; Chandler and Conner. The visit was great, as always, and it was good to be around them all and to once again validate that Life Is Good.

The Three Musketeers

We couldn't leave without first getting a picture of Mom, Tammy, and I.

Our "Last Supper" Sunday

On Sunday July 13th, we had our "Last Supper" in Pennsylvania up at Tammy and Lance's. The kids enjoyed the pool and riding 4 wheelers and the grown ups enjoyed watching them and talking. Cousin Patty came by to wish Sierra and I a good return trip home.

Here is Sierra showing her stuff on one of the 4 wheelers.



Since Sierra and I were leaving early the next day, I wanted to get a picture of the Hughes Family and of all the kids together, one last time. Here is the result.

Front to back: Levi, Loryn, Luke, Tammy, and Lance



Luke, Levi, Loryn, and Sierra

Do they know something that we don't?

Taken outside of Adventure Video in Philipsburg, PA yesterday.

This proves that they have a very strict return policy.

Another Career Revelation

Today was a rainy, dreary, and muggy day and so my sister and I took all 4 kids and went bowling at the local new bowling lanes. We all had a really fun time playing the two games and enjoyed the new facility and its high tech functionality and perks. Needless to say, my average of two games was only 119 and so I can remove Professional Bowler off of the career list. I should have had the automatic bumper railings programmed to come up for my player as well.

Walter Ray Williams Jr. won't have to worry about me taking over his spot as one of the most famous bowlers. We would starve if that was my only source of income based on my ability. Ha, Ha.

All-Star update

My nephew's All-Star baseball team lost last night thus, was eliminated from the 9 and 10 year olds championship series. Regardless, I am proud of Levi for always giving 110% every single game, in spite of what the score board displayed. Sierra and I are very proud of him and glad that we were able to see him in action.
