Tuesday, our truck came. We unloaded in 90 degree heat with 90 percent humidity. It was pretty miserable. It was the one of hottest day we have been here. It was really nice to have our bed to sleep on for the first time in three months.

Wednesday, we spent unpacking as much as we could and putting together and fixing our furniture. Our big long couch didn't fare too well. It was under everything. The board along the back broke, and since someone was in such a hurry to load things when we moved from Provo, the legs were left on and one broke off. We also had some minor tweaking to do on our table and our bedroom dresser got rather scratched up. The other dresser that has Jon's name written all over it was fine (he was really excited when he first learned to write his name). We also had a new computer desk, TV stand , sewing table and kitchen chairs from IKEA to put together.

Thursday, we headed to New York. We stopped at Niagara Falls. It was amazing! I couldn't believe how much water goes over those rocks! There are actually three water falls there: American Falls, Bridal Veil Falls, and Horseshoe Falls. Horseshoe Falls is the one most people know as Niagara Falls.
