This was an exciting year for me and my daughter. I had my very own place and it was perfect for just the two of us. I was working, making good money and living on my own. Of course knowing my luck, something was bound to go wrong. I received bad news that my uncle had passed away and we would have to go up north for his funeral.  My family and I took a trip to New Jersey  & Pennsylvania to visit our family. Growing up we always took family trips. So many times being in Florida we would drive up to see our family. My sister and I would figure out a way to be comfortable in the car one way but not the other way. Go figure. This trip was the first time that we all flew together. My parents, my sister, my beautiful daughter and of course me. We flew into Pennsylvania New Jersey  and drove up to my Aunt Fern’s house.
