Happy 4th of July

We've arrived in Chicago. It's rainy and we're pretty tired, but I think it will be a good place to spend the 4th of July.



Notre Dame


Upon Sam's request, we stopped at Notre Dame on the way from Indiana to Illinois. I'm glad we did- those stained glass windows are breathtaking.

BUCK LAKE RANCH, INDIANA

Hooked up the iphone tethering, but internet connection is too frustratingly slow to upload photos at the moment.

We're at Buck Lake Ranch in Indiana right now- very, very strange. People are real friendly, but they still look at us funny. We were through the town of Freemont earlier to get some beer and food for dinner. At the liquor store we found out that they're allowed to sell warm "pop" (soda) but not cold pop, and they can sell chips, but no candy or gum, because of kids.


Dinner soon, and then there's Karaoke at the Buck Lake stage. I'm gonna be there! Sam and Max probably won't come or they'll die of embarassment, so it looks like it's just gonna me and Erin, and that's fine with me.

Photos to be posted ASAP.

OHIO!






Camped out last night for the first time! Taco salads on the menu. Quite yummy, and Jager is enjoying himself immensely! Next stop: Angola, Indiana's Buck Lake campgrounds. 4 hrs away.
