Driving OH, IN, NJ

For summer vacation we decided to drive the mini-van all over the place.

• July 30: drive to Cleveland, OH
• Aug 1: Cousin Joe's funeral in South Bend, IN
• Aug 2: Guardians Game in Cleveland
• Aug 3: Beach with Kovaks via Philadelphia (separate post)

On July 31 Doug worked from a partner office in Cleveland while Sara and the kids hung out with Ian. The highlight for Doug was braving the Cleveland bus and train to turn a 30 minute commute home into a 110 minute commute home.

Kids toured Cleveland with Ian (not pictured)

We did not spent the night in South Bend, so we had to change in a Chipotle bathroom

Prior to the Guardians game we went to church and hit the game room in Aunt Donna's building. Julia is NOT ready to become a pool hustler yet.

Off to the Guardian's game. Prior to leaving, Doug placed a $2 bet to try to recover the $1 he lost last year. The Guardians were favored to beat the Arizona Diamondbacks.

We re-enacted last year's photo (except Doug pitched)

The entire Cleveland gang in the box

RJ drank 9 sodas at the Guardians game (we got there early so he had 3 before the start)

Sara and Marissa

This time Cleveland WON and Doug got some massive cash ... $3.14. So if you subtract the bet amount ($2) and the money he lost last year ($1) ... he netted $0.13!!!

The next day we started the drive from Cleveland to Sea Isle City, NJ.

While travelling through Phily, the gang dropped Doug at the train station.
