Both the Turnpike and the Parkway were packed [...]

Ten year old girls have very loud voices! We just had a gaggle of them over for a sleep over for my daughter’s 10th birthday. The plan was for them to sleep outside in a tent. I knew I should have installed video surveillance equipment before the sleepover, because the girls were all concerned that [...]
