Dad loved his flowers & plants.     

How he loved to travel !

The wild birds loved him.

Tara & I had the pleasure of taking Riley to her gymnastic's class one day.
If only I were so limber again!
      

We visited Loretta in her new condo then she took all of us out for a wonderful luncheon.


Jacob & Riley were both hesitant on their 1st day back to school.

The girls get pretty......the boys are cool!

Visiting Marc & Tara in Oakland CA

This is a classic pose for the new age, each at their own workstation.

We met Roger & Ric for lunch on Sunday and had a good visit.

October 19, 2004
We had a wonderful dinner with John & Sharon Oksness in Luverne, MN.
Later, Daughter Katy with her husband Mike and baby Eva Marie came to visit.
     
After dinner, Sharon showed us her gumball inventory room for their vending route.
Soon she began filling a baggie for Dan.
     
Dan was in "7th Heaven" with his bag of assorted gumballs......Katy had a cheekful too!
John had to chuckle as he showed us his gumball machines.

Sharon & John left for China the next day to visit their daughter Annie, who is teaching there.
Here they are in Shanghai. It's a huge & busy city....quite different from Luverne, MN.

On the road again, we discover some wonderful camping spots.
