These Streets Will Make You Feel Brand New. Big Lights Will Inspire You.

The fam took a little trip to upstate New York and NYC. Miss Whitney flew in early to spend a few days with me in Hershey. We had tons of fun at Hershey Park, Chocolate World, Intercourse, driving around Scranton trying to find the Scranton sign, and just hanging out.

My littlest brother McKade was playing in a baseball tournament in Cooperstown, NY. We hung around the house and the ball park.

We found the sign!

The gorgeous lake.

I want this house!

Lemon Drops. Yessss.

So, ever since we bought my car in February, the rear air conditioning has made a weird noise. I don't use it that often, but we finally got to the bottom of it - a disgusting soda and spit-soaked straw from the previous owners. Whit and I were pros and used two pairs of tweezers to get it out.

One day it started pouring out of nowhere. My cheap umbrella was just not big enough so we kicked Court out.

My brothers.

I drove back home to work for a few days, then met back up with them in New York City. Whit and I saw Wicked. It was awesome. Seriously. Go see it.

The next day we went shopping on Canal Street. We do have priorities. I bought two cute bags, a watch , and sunglasses.

On the Subway.

Little Italy.

After shopping, we went back to the hotel and showered. It was around 100 degrees with 100 percent humidity. I was pretty much soaked in sweat the whole time (didn't you want to know that?). After resting, we ventured to Brooklyn to get some pizza. There was a lot of construction on the Subway so we couldn't take the train we needed to take. When we finally got there, only Court and I got off the train before the doors closed. We had to wait 45 minutes for the family to get back. Lame.

The view of Manhattan from Brooklyn.

We heard we had to go to Grimaldi's. Well, we got there and the line was an hour long. Other people wanted to leave, but the cool peeps demanded that since we came here to eat pizza, we were going to eat pizza. So we did. It was alright.

Waiting in line. Arvil bought us ice cream sandwiches to cool off. Thanks dad!

The next day we walked around times square and went to Central Park. Then I had to go home.

Naked Cowboy.

Strawberry Fields.
