Here it goes... I went to visit my awesome friend Julianne Schupbach in Antioch, Illinois. Elise, Laura, Tiffany and I got on the road and drove all the way there. That was the most exciting part of the trip. Actually, We found ourselves getting lost on the toll road and had to turn around a few times. That got interesting, and a bit expensive. Anyhow, we finally made it to the cottage.
The lake had actually been flooding due to all the rain that had fallen. That was pretty crazy.
You can just imagine where the water level should be, that tire swing and that picnic table are both supposed to be on grass. Obviously, that isn't the case anymore.
We made some friends, like with "Todd" or Jadah. Whom I guess I really didn't like. I'm told I kept telling her I hated asian people. So since she was asian, I guess I hated her. Frankly, I don't remember any of that. But that doesn't mean it never happened. The first night I went for a swim, in the dark, and beat up my shins a little bit. I was told I kept taking my shirt on and off. Knowing me, I would understand the taking the shirt off part. Sometime I just like to dance, without my shirt. Or it gets hot. But on and off, I am really confused about that. Anyway, the next day I was told that I should ask permission when taking my shirt off. Hence "Is this an appropriate time?"
That day we basically sat around on the boat, We probably hung out there for a good two or three hours. Everytime someone got off the boat, they didn't get back on, well other than Elise. We actually came up with a really awesome game after we were finished on the boat. It was pretty intense, and was like waterfall, only ten times better. That game also took a really really long time, and we got to boss our friends around. It was quite interesting.
At this point, I'm thinking that If you are still reading this post, then You need to find something better to do. But If there really isn't anything else, I will continue.
We rode around on the golf cart a bunch of times, that was one of the coolest things. We just got to drive around on a golf cart, drinks in hand. I'm sure you could only imagine. Juliannes uncle was really really cool, they'd go to the store and bring cases and cases of presents. Overall it was a really really great time, and I don't think there was anything I didn't like about it.
Oh before I forget, there's also the case of the tree.
This tree
So I was standing on the back patio when this was taken, If you looked over to the right, the house was right there. This fell down between friday and saturday. So we were all probably sleeping. If this tree had fallen down the other direction, you could probably guess what would have happened. Hmmm I guess we were all pretty lucky...
