I forget to update about my vaca! Wow. Ok. After a trip to the ER for some killer abdominal pain, I got some antibiotics and painkillers and got a few days off from work just before starting vacation officially. That was on a Tues. Friday I went back home for the night, Sat. went to the drive-ins with Steven and saw Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Skeleton Key, which was awesome. Sunday Steven's brother came over and we all headed back here to spend the night before leaving on our trip. Monday morning we ran a few errands and then got on the road at 10am. We went to the Ben and Jerry's Factory -- really interesting place; worth the 2 hrs. to get there 'cause we had a blast. Then from there we went to Fort Ticondaroga in NY, which took about 2 more hours to get to. It was a really neat place to see. We left just as they were closing and it took us 2 hrs traveling around the Lake George area before we hit I-90 in NY. So, by 7, we were on our 5 hour trip across the state toward Niagara Falls. We crossed the border into Canada just after midnight. From there, we parked the car and hit the casino for awhile. We went and walked to the falls and the around the rest of the city for awhile before attempting to get a hotel room. We finally got one and while standing outside the hotel, the hooker that was across the street came over and bummed a cigarette off of Pete! It was SOOO funny. We crashed for the night and when we got up the next day we walked around the city for a few hrs (about 10 miles worth) before heading back to relax. The next day we checked out at 11 and got on the road to head back to Keene. It took us about 7 hrs to get from Niagara to Keene, which included stopping for food, gas, bathroom, etc. All in all, it was a really good trip...even though we only got back with a 1/4 tank and $2 left in our name, hahahaha. The next day we went back to Hudson, I got to see my cousin Jenn that I hadn't seen in 5 years, and then were on our way back here to relax and enjoy the last few days of vacation together. It was nice...until work and everything started back up...oh well.
