Kosmo Posted October 26, 2009 Report Share Posted October 26, 2009 this is my story.......started watching browns......shit......I can't watch it anymore.....let's get out....where ??? Let's go see this place...we started at 2.20 PM no plans what so ever. When we hit 36, I tried to call/text you and Adam, I do not have any service available......shit.....well we enjoyed the place.....it's really awesome.......while coming back again I tried with my phone.....same thing. As I knew Adam's house, I just stopped by and wrote a note at his door. Just to let you know guys, did not forget you just some last minute misplan messed it up.No worries sometimes next month we will visit another family friend in West Lafayette and we will hang out for sure......promise...Disha and Suparna loved the fall colors and Coshocton and while coming back, I showed them the 751 twisty driving, I took the civic...so better than the van.....but....nahhhh..no fun in the cage......but the pavement was so clean......see you folks next time !!!!
