Places Visited
I got to go to an airshow with my family near Philadelphia at Joint Base McGuguire-Dix-Lakehust. The weather was perfect and there was a lot to see. We had a great time!
I also visited Rachel, Jon and Derek in the Albany Area. Derek and I shopped, then met Rachel and Jon for a walk along the Mohawk River followed by lunch at the Center Street Pub in Schenectady where we had Beef on 'Weck. It was delicious and surprising to see on the menu. We went back to Rachel and Jon's to celebrate their anniversary and Derek's birthday. Scruffy came home with me! Yay!
Relatives from New Jersey came to visit and we had a great time talking, walking, eating, and shopping. It was wonderful to see them!
I also went to Philadelphia with these relatives and we visited the Please Touch museum. It was so much fun! It is for young children and is set up as a town where the children, their parents and grandparents can shop, play with water and air, fix cars, go on buses, etc.
