on the road again.....



august is just flying by!!! i've been on a number of vacations which is making the time super fun, i think that's why it's going by so quickly. it started with a road trip to boston to visit a few of the softball girls. lots of fun. i got to meet some of their friends from home, spend time with some of their families that i know, and i got to spend some time at one of the girls beach houses. it was awesome to see them. esp since one of the girls is now graduated. my second road trip was a little longer....this time to south carolina! quite long, about 12 hours from my house. this trip was with all people that i met abroad, two of them i haven't seen since i got back! so my friend from rochester drove 5.5 hours to get me, we drove 3 hours to dc to pick up another friend and then we drove 9 hours to mount pleasant, south carolina (it's about 15 minutes from charleston). we went on a boat, we played in the ocean, we soaked in the history of south carolina, we walked around charleston, and spent a lot of time getting to my friends family who we were staying with. it was sooooo great to see these friends as they live a little farther away. but the fun wasn't over yet. once i got back i had two days before going upstate new york with some of the family. we did the usual, went hiking, fishing, boating, rummi royale playing, quading, smore making, tons of reading, and spending quality time with my frampa. it was a great way to end my vacations for the summer. august is half way through and i only have three more weeks before i go back to school but there are still a ton of fun things to come!!
