Our 'Working' Vacation

TO VERMONT!
I was way too excited that I was finally going!
And now I cannot wait to go back, like during the Winter when it's all snowy

Me and Nathan boarded the plane, and I sat behind him to Chicago, we waited a little bit and boarded our final plane to Boston!
That time we got to sit next to each other, and we watched Weeds, which made the flytime go by so much faster!

We got picked up by Chelle and Brig, and off to our fancy hotel.
Chelle, Nathan, and I walked to Cheesecake Factory to because apparently United doesn't like to give out food unless you pay $9 for it. Boo them.

We woke up and started walking!
I don't think we actually walked that much, but it was hot and there was so much to see that after a while we were pooped. We sat on a bench, people watched, and ate italian ice. YUM!

The Duck Tour was cool; we saw lots of things without having to walk around!
haha. And went on the Charles River.
We also went to Harvard, ate at a mexican place with Mario and Leilani which was so GOOD!

Oh and it was also Boston Pride Festival that day. Especially good people watching.

I think Boston had way too many people for me, and way too much traffic. But it was really fun and I would love to go back when I have a million dollars and shop!
We picked up Kevin later from the airport, he was in VirGinA. ha. and Off we were to Vermont!

We visited Woodstock, not the actual one in NY (I thought it was...) and Sharon (watched the Joseph Smith video), ate tons of ice cream in New Hampshire, drove around Darthmouth, got some shirts that say Poop on them and oh yeah, PAINTED the INN!

Nathan was concrete hero, and helped with the slab, while me and Kevin were painting.
I can't believe how much paint I got on myself, and I really tried to not get my clothes splattered with it.

And we ended off with a birthday party!

On the way back, we got to the airport, and they told us we had no plane. So Nathan called the Hilton and we got a room which was...nice with his two twin beds and no space to roam. haha
But we only had to sleep for 5 hours, and get to the airport for our flight to San Fran.

Things Learned: I hate flying, Hilton hotels are not as cool as Paris Hilton, Don't let me paint doors, It's easier to paint trim with a baby paintbrush even if it takes longer, Maddies loves purses and always seems to find mine and my glasses, New Hampshire has the best ice cream, Anders does not like flaming fire unless it comes out of an onion volcano, East Coast hot dog buns are cut weird so BYOHDB (bring your own hot dog buns west coasters), Eddie farts really loud but is still super cute, the Pub has really really good chicken wings but if 2 boys and girl share a bathroom, don't eat too many on one night at the same time.
