Getting a new car is always exciting. I've never been to Niagara Falls. I think everybody else in the world has be me. As you know I enjoy reading your memoirs and you're going a good job writing them.

Oh Beth, I felt so bad for you reading this! I can't imagine how stressful that trip must have been for you. Seems like your husband was not used to being around four children all day long. And you have the right attitude for a traveler - easy to adapt and flexible to go with things that don't go according to plan. You can plan only so much but with kids and travel, you have to be willing to go with the flow (and bring medicines and extra food!) You were amazing to be able to carry the whole family through such an exhausting trip! By the way, I think the pronunciation of Amish is AH mish. https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/pronunciation/english/amish

    Thank you so much for the review and comments. All trips with children have some moments when you wonder why you're putting yourself through this, but I like traveling in spite of the headaches I did learn to say Amish correctly before the trip ended Carol was saying it right.

This is a mock Biographical Non-Fiction, interestingly enough, is meant for your children to help them know how you lived, is a well structured with real descriptive expression about your travel to Niagara Falls in a vacation, though the introduction is not catchy but the ending or conclusion is good enough; well said, well done; thanks for sharing this.

Elaine and I would spontaneously go on weekend trip, putting a mattress in the back of the station wagon, I later bought a caravan and went touring extensively with that caravan, then we touring gospel band, entertaining in churches, clubs and outdoor venues, I loved driving holidays. We toured the eastern states of America and Canada, when we holiday, including the Lancaster county and the Amish people. This Is a wonderful story Beth. Blessings Roy

    Thank you so much for reading this and sharing things about your own vacation. Traveling in something with a place to lie down is a lot easier than a car trip. He wanted to try out the new car but we would have been more comfortable in the Van. Thank you for pointing out my spags.

It's so well portrayed, holidaying with four young children, by car. The reader gets a sense of being in the car with the travellers, so effectively is it conveyed. I smile to myself as I read this remembering holidaying with our children when they were young. Well done ! Wish I had 6 !
