Coming Home

After a great night in South Dakota, we awoke to a partially flooded tent and ready to get to really driving home. There were only 2 possible locations we wanted to see from here on out: The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Niagara Falls.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ended up being more then anyone of us wanted to pay for, not to mention home was calling our hearts and minds. We shot to Indiana the first day after South Dakota, and weather once again forced us into a hotel for the night.

Then next morning church hunting started up again. We found only one church with a website and times for the service. Liberty Bible Church was huge, not only just the building but the congregation was the largest I've seen in a while. A rough count would be about 600 people, and they have 3 services so all together i could only imagine. This was such an uplifting place, you could tell by looking at the people that they actually wanted to be there. When I see churches that big I figure there must be a catch, bad preaching ( none biblical that is) to left sided ( take a guess) or so feel good ( prosperity types, you know, that guy in Texas with the stadium church...). I was not let down at all. The pastor preached great gospel, the message hit home, he knew the Word, he preached with conviction. I don't even know a church in the area that big, let alone with solid understanding of the bible.

After a great sermon we pushed on. We drove all the way to Buffalo New York. The weather wasn't to bad so we decided to try to camp. There were only to options, a KOA and Branches of Niagara. Now KOA is usually very pricey and we always avoid them to we go to there other. Turns out they are just as bad and tried to sneak some added fees. In a fit of anger we hop in the van peal right out of there and make our way to the KOA down the street. Apparently the younger man working at the former campground didn't take to kindly to our leaving in such a fashion, thus, following us and freaking out.

The KOA was also to much so we ended up grabbing a shady motel across the street, real shady. I wont go into detail but there were mice...

After a good nights sleep only 2 things were on our minds: see Niagara, and get home. Niagara was a couple pictures and peacing out of there. We made good time getting home, and arrived around 4:30. We unloaded Luke and Andrew's stuff so fast and Jesse and I flew to north Belchertown to finish up. Then I took a a quick detour and then home bound.
