20150627 - Seeing the Sites
20150627 - Up in the am with the news that all games for the weekend have been cancelled... :-( Not wanting the trip to be a total loss I got out the trusty iPhone and RoadsideAmerica.com and we found us some sites to see! We had D's friend Drew with us and we went all over Indiana looking stopping and looking at cool things. It took us about 9 hours to make the 3 hour trip home, but it was FUN!!!
We saw what a group of teenage boys can do to a hotel room, the World's Largest praying mantis, an old style toy store full of cool things. A gas station made of recycled materials, the WOrld's Largest sycamore stump, the World's Largest Steer 'Old Ben', The World's Largest Holstein Cow, the World's Largest candle, a giant flag and one of the Madonna of the Highway statues. WHAT A DAY!!!

20150626 - Ray of Sunshine
20150626 - UP in the am and dropped D & Drew off at the McD's in Grove City, then I dropped the car off at Tuffy and Dave took me into work. Full day and Dave carried me to get the car. I got it gassed up and headed home, G's baseball was cancelled but D was already in Indiana for his tournament so I picked up the rest of the fam and we headed West. We got almost to our destination in the light and just as it turned dark it poured so hard you couldn't see the road for the last hour of our trip :-( We got to the hotel and it was a disater checking in... But we found D and Gma&paW and got settled in for the night.

20150619 - My Boys
20150619 - up nice and early, good start, trying to recover from yesterday... was quiet and snuck out without waking anyone up, got in car, realized halfway to work I had less than 0 gas... made it to gas station, points card reader wouldn't work, went in made arrangements to pay after, back out to car nozzle wouldn't fit in tank (diesel has a bigger diameter nozzle, this pump had an old gas nozzle on it... so wouldn't unlock the diesel safety mechanism...), the people from inside called me and I tried again, no luck... Moved car up to next pump that i could see had the bigger diesel nozzle, back inside, back outside, pump wont start, girl out to try and help, no luck, after 20 minutes at the gas station with no gas, and now 5 min late for work, I gave up and headed to work, all the parking spots up front where i usually park were taken so parked way in the back, heading in to work and realized when i unpacked my stuff from last night i put all my chew on the shelf next to my desk, so i headed back to the car, called Dave and told him I would be back after I got gas and chew and would drive to Cleveland or until I ran out of gas trying to find it. Made it to a second station, got gas, got chew and in to work 30 minutes late. so much for a good start to the day.
