Family fun!

Hi all...

Most of our day yesterday was spent in travel. We left North Sioux City, SD around noon and headed into Iowa.

Our nephew, Luke, and his significant other, Carissa, live in Des Moines, and we were so glad they were able to get together with us on such short notice. We hooked up with them around 7PM, and they showed us around downtown Des Moines. We had dinner at this really cool place called, El Bait Shop. This place had every imaginable type of beer on tap. Notice Chuck carefully checking it out. We had such a nice time visiting with them and were so sorry to see the evening come to an end. Thanks, Luke and Carissa for a great time. We love you!

After dinner, since it was late, we headed to the nearest rest area, but what we got was anything but rest! It was very noisy there.....too close to traffic and packed full of tractor trailers. So, today, we both are tired.....especially Chuck, who has done every bit of the driving the entire trip. We stopped early today in Galesburg, Illinois, had a nice lunch, took a nap, and are getting ready to head to the pool! Looking forward to a nice, relaxing RAIN FREE evening!
