We got our second knock on the door in a week from the fire department today. They were once again warning us about a severe storm. I think they have more severe storms out here then sunny days. The fire department must get tired of knocking on doors every time it rains. I have to say that I am kinda impressed that they do that. Since we hardly watch TV or listen to the radio it is comforting to know that those reliable firemen keep us informed of the weather. I'm also kinda partial to fireman since I grew up with one (HI DAD!).
Well after we left the campground we drove to our second most visited store Best Buy. Once again we left without our problems solved. I'm really not sure if anything from Best Buy is actually the BEST BUY. I'm kinda partial to Costco and Sams. Since Best Buy couldn't conclude my computer needs we decided to drive back to the Mall of America and head back to the Apple Store. After another long hour in the Apple store I think my computer problem is temporary solved...Yeah.
We decided to stay in the mall parking lot until they kick us out. We will let you know how long we last.
Thought of the day: When I was about to land in Minneapolis the other day. I looked down from the plane and noticed a train track next to a major road. Sitting right next to the track and road was a group of houses. I thought to myself, I would not be able to sleep with the noise from the trains and the cars all night long. Then it hit me that I was flying right over top of the houses and was coming down for a landing just on the other side of the road. So the houses probably could hardly hear the trains or cars due to the over whelming noise of the planes. I guess what I am saying is if you ever think that your house is in a bad location...think again...unless you are deaf it couldn't get much worse then the houses by the trains, cars and planes.
By the way, the answer to the trivia question is Lola. The kids named her after the navigation system in the movie RV. But if I were to name her I would definitely name her Mrs Were-lost-again!

Hi H Family,
Just checking in, scrolling through the blog & pictures. It's been awhile since I've been on. I really liked the Bakers Pharmacy and Bob's somethin, somethin Weiner Store. Funny. We've had a busy summer with visitors (Chase, my mom, my brother, Betsy & Parker, Peter), kids camps, surfing lessons, days to the beach, boy scout camp, family scout camp (we're camping on the beach!), Saddleback VBS (with energy like Breakaway!), and on & on. We're having fun, but miss you all.
Rochelle :)
PS: Cindy, what was your trip all about??? work?
Looks like you guys are really having fun.
Well I'm glad at long last you’re listening to a fireman, any fireman. Get out or you and your family may get washed away, probably has a little more impact than “Cindi did you get your homework done, or you can’t wear that to school, or my personal favorite, be home by midnight”.
It was sure good to talk with you the other day and to hear that you’re doing ok after a very hard week. I'm also looking forward to meeting up and traveling with you guys in September. It is probably the best time of year to travel from Main to Boston. Let's lock in the dates soon, so Mom and I can book our flights.
So far I have a perfect score in the trivia game, I haven’t guessed one right yet. This time I’ve done my homework and studied the pictures on the blog and have narrowed it down to two choices, so I at least have a 50/50 chance.
I also wanted to tell Dave how much mom and I enjoy his input. You both do a great job.
