Solomon (5) and I sitting at the outlook before the Chesepeke Bay Bridge and Tunnel!
A sign after the second tunnel by the pier that you could stop and look at the water!
This is the pier that we (Solomon, Timmy and I) walked out on. Quite warm that day (this was Wednesday).
We saw this barge going across the tunnel. It was SO awesome!!
The view looking over the bay =)
As you guys know I went with my aunt Julia and her three boys (Solomon (5) Timothy (2) and Josiah (7 weeks)) down to Virginia to one of her friend's funeral. I mainly went along to help with the driving and also to help with the children!! We left Tuesday evening around 7:30 and drove till at least 11:00. We stopped a few times and also one time to eat =) We got a hotel in Seaford Delaware and then left around 9 in the morning from there. We stopped at a Walmart to get some things so by 10 we were on the road. We drove for a little while and stopped for 45 min so Julia could nurse the baby. Then we got on the road again!! We stopped one more time to see one of Julia's friends. After that we drove till we needed gas. Then we switched drivers and Julia drove the rest of the way. After we got gas we went on the bridge/tunnel. Once we got off of there (we stopped at that outlook thing for about I would say an hour or so) and we headed to a friend's mom's house to clean up for the viewing.
We were at the viewing from six till 8 or so. Thne we headed to Nelson and Rose Mary's house to eat a very late supper and for the night. They were such nice people. We slept the night there and got breakfast then headed to the funeral. We were at the funeral and fellowship meal till 3. My aunt wanted to go to NC to see her parents so I found a way home with some people Julia knew and we left from the funeral. (Julia will be down at her parents till next week sometime). We (John Lee and Verna Stoltzfus and I) went to the beach then (pictures below) before we hit the road to drive home.
The beach from the sidewalk.
Me at the beach..the water felt good =D
THE BEACH..oh the beach was fun even if we weren't there long =)
After the beach we headed on the way home. We had six hours of driving. We stopped on time to use the restroom and get some food. Then we headed home again. We left down there probably around 3:30 or so and I got back to my aunt and uncles around 9. Once they dropped me off I went in and cleaned up a bit. Since my uncle was home by himself and is going to be taking a load of sheds on a long trip this next week I washed some clothing for him. My mom came and got me today. It was a wonderful and unexpected week for me. I sure missed my family and Navajo but I had so much FUN!!
