This past weekend, Skyler and I packed up our gear and headed to a lake house in Indiana to meet Dan, Leslie, and Riggin (Skyler's boyfriend as you can tell from the last blog). Moe had to work, but he encouraged me to still go on the trip to hangout. Since we moved, one of the hardest adjustments has been not having Dan and Les living a few blocks away. We took for granted how often we would show up at their house multiple times a week to hangout (and when I say multiple I mean majority as I think there were several weeks in the end that I saw them 7 out of 7 nights a week). When I heard they were making the trip, I insisted on going (yeah - I pretty much invited myself)! I left after work on Friday with plans of trying to get there by 9 o'clock. However, my map quest directions had 29 turns of which 26 of them were after I got off the main freeway. My hopes of an early arrival were quickly crushed. I ended up pulling over no less than five times to cry, say a prayer that I wasn't going to be murdered in a corn field, re-group, and continue driving with Skyler as my navigator. Bottom line is I made it there alive. The rest of the weekend was a blast which consisted of lots of drinking, mas quantities of eating, getting sunburned, a pontoon boat ride around the lake, floating on rafts, playing euchre and spoons, and burning lots of wood. Here are some photo highlights from the weekend extravaganza!

Dan loves America. Go FORD!
First pumpkin beer of the season!

Dan and Jason after having a bit too much to drink.
Dan's fire that he rebuilt no less than ten times throughout the day.
Brilliant idea to built a bar on the lower deck.
A few too many drinks for this clan.
Adorable. Enough said.
Clearly I haven't showered in awhile.
