Fun overnight

Some of the overnights I go on are a lot funner than others. One of my favorites is Philly. I love that city for some reason. The hotel we stay at is right next to so many things to see and do. When you get lucky, you actually have some extra time to take advantage of it. Such was the case on my last trip. I had about four hours of extra time to check things out. I went to the Liberty Bell, Constitution Hall, went on the tour of the Mint and visited a museum about the history and struggles of America growing into the nation it is today. It is great to appreciate all that was done by the founding fathers. I got the girls a fun map of the US for them to put the quarters in when they collect them all. They have all fifty states finally in circulation. When I gave it to them, they raided our money jar and filled in most of it. There are still about ten or so that we need. It will be fun to find them all.
