bmckiernan — Fri, 24 Jul 2015 15:30:00 GMT

I haven't been writing for a while. We have been so busy and there hasn't been much wifi. We stopped in Springfield,IL Today to see Lincolns house and tomb. I put pics on Facebook. We are staying at a campground in Indiana tonight. Back in the New York time zone! We want to be home by thursday. We don't really have any more stops to make so it's all driving now. See you all at home!

Heading home!

bmckiernan — Sat, 18 Jul 2015 09:10:00 GMT

We left Vegas and are heading towards Utah because dad wants to see the arches and stuff. Than we head home. Back to good old New York. Someone please remind me In the future never to go to Las Vegas ever again. Thanks. Creepiest place i have ever been. Also there must have been like a huge plane that brought thousands of foreigners from some country to Las Vegas and they all rented RV's because I think we were the only ones that spoke English. It was interesting. See you all at home!! Xoxoxo

We walked around San Fran and saw the bridge and Alcatraz and lots of stores. We saw 2 sea lions too! after we went back to Eileen's house and had pizza

and the fun ended when we got back to the house and saw we had a ticket on the RV for parking the wrong way In the street and we also need an RV permit. Also In the middle of the night, another cop came and gave us another ticket. Just our luck! We are going to hang out and relax today and have dinner with the whole family tonight and leave tomorrow.
