Julie Visited

Julie visited Chicago on her start of Route 66. She wanted to have a tour of Chicago, so we went out with her and had a very busy day. We took the Water Taxi, which was free for the first 2 weeks it was operating, then the free trolleys, and also we went up to the John Hancock center Signature Lounge and had a drink. Here are some pics:

I Actually Changed the Shocks!

At first I didn't think I could do it, but I actually changed the VW's shocks yesterday. The hardest thing was breaking the bolts.

This is what it looks like now:

Trip to Florida

Over the weekend, we went to Florida. Here are some pics:

Diamond Diggers!

For Spring Break, we went diamond digging in Diamond Crater State Park, Arkansas, but sadly we found no diamonds, just a lot of rocks. It was all muddy.



The diamond field is the dirt in the background.

And just to make the trip more fun, on the way back, one of the cylinders of the bus busted! We got to Springfield Missouri and tried to fix it. A nice guy named Clint (?) tried to help us, but after a few hours of fixing it, we couldn't fix it there and continued on our way home.

XC Skiing at Cowles Bog

Today me and Romy went cross country skiing at Cowles Bog in the Indiana Dunes. It is a 2 miles trail over the dunes that leads you to the lake shore. We had a lot of fun, especially down the dunes!

Smile!

The VW looks like its smiling. It must be frozen!
