Catching up...

Catching up on a whole bunch of things...

This is back a couple of weeks ago in a very unique park in S. IL - Garden of the Gods State Park.
We were there the day after this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5tu1WTfrK78


Then we spent some time in Springfield, IL and saw my college roommate and her husband, Allicent and Don Smith, for the first time in about 40 years. Had a great time there and got some good pictures but they seem to be temporarily lost somewhere in my computer. I'm sure they'll show up somewhere soon.
Our next stop was Rock Island, IL - the Quad Cities - for our memorial service for Mom. Here we are, sheltered from the storm. Our cousins Joan and Diane from IL and their husbands, our cousin Barb from IN and her Mom, our Aunt Marge from FL joined our family. Diane and her husband Terry hosted a wonderful get-together at their beautiful home in Bettendorf, IA after the service.

Next it was niece Kelsey's high school
graduation in Minooka, IL

I love a cap toss - see it here:
