im back!! yea, so heres how it went: we left for Massachusetts 2 tuesdays ago. drove for about 10 minutes. a/c doesnt work. stop at garage. wait an hour for them to replace coolant. leave. drive all day. ((grandpa wins worst driver award.)) stop at Niagara Falls, NY. we stayed at this random campground. saw the falls by night. leave next morning. drive not 10 minutes and the car breaks down. stuck on side of highway.... for 5 hours in the broiling hot of mid august.. finally get tow for car to garage. get tow for trailer back to the campground. stuck at the dang campground for a WEEK. worst week of my life thus far. there are no adequate words. drove alllll night. pull into toll booth. car dies. im not kidding. cops come with a tow. dead battery. recharge car. car dies again down the road. get jump and follow cop to another garage. bad alternator. wait for part. finally get back on the road. arrive in Witinsville that morning. This is where i can start typing like a normal person because im not pissed about the following events. we drove around the village of Witisville where my grandmother was born and where my daddy is originally from. we went to my great aunt wilma and great unlce hump's house and stayed there for a few hours. Their granddaughter had a raccon for a pet. they brought it over. lol. kinda weird, no? then on wednesday we went to Purgatory park, a big chasm basically with a lot of big rocks. me and alex hiked through there.then we stopped at the library and went online for a bit. we stopped at grandma's cousin Bootsie's for a while. that night we went out to eat with aunt wilma and uncle hump. i had chicken cuz i hate seafood. gross. Thursday we went to Boston for this Duck tour thing with my dad's cousin sherri. shes really nice but shes a LIBTARD! (scary music) ! yea. this duck tour is on this WWII vehicle that goes on land and water, so it drives around the city, you get a basic overview, and then goes for a little ride in the Charles River. We spent the rest of the day at Sherri's. Friday we went to Boston again and went on this whale watching thing. i didnt like that. i didnt even like the dolphin watching thing that much in South Carolina and that was wayyyy shorter. we only saw like 4 whales anyway, through the crowd of people... the rest of the day we spent at Quincy Market. i enjoyed that. there were lots of little stands and street performers. We ate at the famous durgin park. i had fish and chips. dont ask me why because i hate fish. it wasnt bad. Saturday we went to Boston for the last time and partially did Freedom Trail. there was a lot to see. i climbed the Bunker Hill monument. my legs still hurt. Sunday we went to Pleasant street CRC, where my grandma was baptized. we spent the rest of the day at great uncle stu and great aunt deb's cabin. it rained. Monday we drove up to Glocester and saw some of the little fishing villages and crap. GORTONS FISHERMAN, kels!!! lmao. we left for home tuesday morning and drove all day. got home at around 5 this morning. Three new things: we got a new computer so i can use my ipod, we FINALLY got cable!!! and Chae-Eun, the exchange student is here! we werent here when she arrived on Sunday, but she's here! im excited! not really looking forward to school, though....hhhh i still need to go shopping. well, thats it, im out. that was a reeeeeaaaallly long post. im sorry... i will forget if i dont write it down somewhere. hahah
