A DAY IN THE LIFE OF OUR TEENAGE BOYS

Day #6
Date: Wednesday, July 29, 2015
Departure: Cleveland, Ohio
Destination: Farmington, New York
Miles: 298 measly Harley-rider miles...not so becoming for Honda-rider miles


One pounder (see the quarter for scale?)


 SERIOUSLY? 
Biscuits and Gravy potato chips?


PLUS.....
Ben ate
One foot-long Subway for lunch
A giant pretzel and
and a good portion of two cinnamon rolls


Jase's Journal
Grandpa and I have hit our hamburger quota!
Neither one of us can even say the word, "hamburger"!


Perhaps Ben has reached his quota as well?

Jon orders salads and vegetables
Jack orders steak

Jase's Journal
It was hard to get up this morning; 
Our motel beds were doubles and we have learned that big guys in a double bed do not work.

Ben and I have a wrestling match every night trying not to touch each other 
but to keep possession of the blanket.

The 14-year olds can sleep anywhere they can find because they don't have to get up and stay alert and drive all day. They just sleep their life away on the back of the motorcycles anyway.
Ben
Grandpa

Jack's $MONEY$ is Gone
He spent it all on 50 magnets as a memento of his 48-State-Adventure
He calls them his "Murca" magnets
You know? Short for "America".

A DAY IN THE LIFE OF OUR TEEN-AGE BOYS




Look Closely at Jon's Socks!
They match Ben's tie at least.

Look closely at Ben's shoes.
It was either that or his boots!

What a great DAY 
IN THE LIFE OF OUR TEENAGE BOYS!
