Last Sunday we went fishing with brother Ed, his wife Paula, daughter Heather and grandson Eddie. As you can see by the pix, we all were very serious about that. (Ed's pole is a little short doncha think?) Paula sat in the shade reading. We were more serious about our picnic lunch. On Tuesday we headed east and ended up at a nice quiet rv park just east of Huntington, In. It had four fishing lakes, so we stayed Wednesday to try our luck. Actually I cast a line Tuesday evening and decided to read all day Wed. Thursday we made it to Grand Rapids, Ohio and parked in the Sheelys' yard. Butch is a blacksmithing buddy of Duane's from way back. Butch and Cindy built their beautiful log house from the ground up. We have spend a lot of time yakking and showing each other what we have been making. (Cindy is a beader and I quilt and count cross stitches.) Today we visited Sauder Village, a privately owned historical village. It was there we found our new coach. Unfortunately the owner, a migrant beet harvester, wasn't around to seal the deal. Back at the house we all sat around chatting and enjoying the pleasant breezes and the antics of the hummingbirds. Tomorrow is our last day here. Monday we head for Hinckley.
