In August of 1998, we went on a trip to Michelle Miralles', our sister-in-law's cabin in Pennsylvania. Something like 17 of us stayed in a one-bathroom, three-bedroom cabin in the middle of the woods. We saw hundreds of deer while we were there, cooked over an open fire, and we made a trip up to Niagara Falls. Alicia was 10 and Dana was 8.

Here we are in front of the American Falls

This is the more beautiful Horseshoe Falls on the Canadian side. The boat in front of it is the famous Maid of the Mist that we did

“Ride ‘em cowgirl!”

After a couple of days with so many people using one bathroom, we decided to go to Pittsburgh to get a good night’s sleep. We went to the zoo, where the girls and I check out the elephants… and Dana pets the wrong end of a camel.
