You would think that dropping the number of passengers from six to three in the van would have a significant impact on the amount of trouble we could get ourselves into, but Addy, Orion and I seem to have no trouble keeping things interesting.
After checking the weather in Cambridge and seeing that it was supposed to be sunny in Pennsylvania, we decided we'd head out and do some camping. However, as the sun began to set, some awfully dark clouds were looming on the horizon... with lightening... and rain! Once again, the weather report nailed it! In an attempt to find a hotel to get out of the rain, we started driving through a town where we began to see signs for "Make Believe Land". Without knowing exactly what "Make Believe Land" was, we realized we'd be fools to not investigate.
As it turned out, the clouds were upon us quite quickly, and we found ourselves it a hot, heavy, lightning filled rainstorm. Naturally, everyone agreed that breaking into the land of make believe was the thing to do. We suited up, got our game faces on, and went for it!
After scaling the fence, we found out the Make Believe Land was actually a water park filled with high metal structures and pools of water everywhere. Seeing as how the lightening was striking less than a mile away, we all agreed that playing at the closed amusement park would be one of the less intelligent decisions any of us would have made in our adult lives. With lightning striking all around us, we got the hell out of there as soon as we could!
Now that we were all wet, and unbearably hot, we decided we'd save some cash, rearrange the contents of the van and sleep at Wallmart. It was hot, it was wet and it was sticky. It was the perfect start to our adventures back West.
