Camping with the Coffins

On July 4th weekend, Gary and the boys and I went to Vermont with Marc and Nancy and the girls in their 31 foot camper.  We met up with Nancy's parents and her Uncle Ronnie and Aunt Sara (with their girls Stephanie and Mackenzie) and we had a heck of a time! :-)  Of course, what trip would be complete without some sort of adventure....and we found it before we even got there!  The truck that Nancy and I were driving up with the kids blew a belt!  Thanks to our guardian angel, we had a good samaritan stop to help us who just happened to be a mechanic on his day off!  To make a long story short, we made it back on the road in record time!  Thank you, Mike!
