okay well where did i leave off??
we woke up the next day and had to drive an hour back to the main land to go to walmart to get a new mattress and charcoal since we had forgotten our stove gadget to hook the propane to it. so every time we wanted to cook we had to light charcoal and then wait 45 minutes. not fun. the next day my car was really acting up (the starter didnt want to start the car). so we decided to go to the main land again and have my battery checked. we went to VIP (like autozone) and they said oh yeah its dead we can fix it- it will be about an hour wait. so we leave and walk down to the little plaza and waste an hour- walk back giving them some extra time cause we were probably gone an hour and a half and when we walk up the mechanic looking guy was like- is the bug yours? oh man i cant touch that with a mechanic, its buried. so we wasted over 3 hours to get there and wait to find out they cant do it. their mechanic had gone home for the day. so we waited till thursday when we were leaving acadia to get it fixed. it died thursday morning so we had to have another neighbor jump us. what a disaster. i am so looking forward to getting rid of the bug now.
after acadia we went to visit my friend carrie from clarkson. we got to see her new baby, he is so cute. if you have seen my pictures from our trip then you already know. we had such a good time visiting, we spent thursday night there and went out to dinner, we also went looking for moose but to no avail.
friday morning we went to burlington and toured the vt teddy bear factory and magic hat brewery. we filled 5 growlers, it was soooo good. at our hotel we were told they had an outdoor heated pool- so we decided at dusk time that we could swimming, it being heated and all. well when i jumped in it was about 50 degrees!! i would hate to see how cold an unheated pool is there.
saturday we drove back to syracuse to end our trip. we played trival pursuit and had a bbq. it was very fun except dad and i lost in trivial pursuit.
what a relief to be home though
work was crazy being gone for two weeks straight and i think it took til thursday to catch back up, then friday we had another catastrophy with one piece of equipment.
this past weekend ryan and i went to binghamton for a friends of his wedding. sunday was our one year anniversary, hard to believe its been a year already. yesterday i went to syracuse in the morning to golf with my dad in an all native tournament at the turning stone casino. it was such a nice course. i sucked terrible at golf but it was really fun otherwise. next year i think we should cheat so we can win a trophy.
