Sunday - We found a small church not far from the campground this morning (In Massachusetts). It was good to worship God with others.We also found a Trader Joe's, which made Amanda's day! We drove on to the west a ways before settling down for the night in upstate New York. We found a great spot right along a beautiful river. The kids had fun playing in the playground and in river (only fell in a few times!).
Monday - At the campground, we also found out that across the street is a "diamond" mine you can mine at. It has been featured on the Travel Channel, and I think I have actually seen part of the segment. So we decided to try our hand at mining for diamonds. Even Red got in on the mining. 
We found that if you picked the right rocks, and hit them hard enough, they might just crack open revealing small quartz like crystals ("Diamonds"). We found some and had a great fun.In the afternoon we drove on to the Buffalo NY area to visit Niagara Falls tomorrow. Dined on Amish noodles and barbecued kielbasa sausage!
Hi, Mark Morgenstern here. I was just thinking about you guys. We are getting ready to head out with our pop-up camper for a little R&R this weekend in Minnesota. Will you be coming through our "neck of the woods" eventually. If you will, we'd love to see you. Drop us a note.
