After three weeks we're heading home. Right now we're in Crossville, TN visiting friends. More about that later. Soooo, let's catch up.
9/28 thru 10/8 - From Branson, we decided to drive directly to Sheboygan, arriving on Thursday evening. Our timing was perfect! The colors were peaking. This is one of the things I miss about living in Wisconsin. The fall colors. We took the next couple of days to relax and access the "to do" list hanging on the fridge. We also got some family visiting in including a visit with my sisters & families at the Estebrook Bier Garden in Milwaukee.
We also got to attend the 5th annual Oktoberfest at Al & Al's in Sheboygan. We stopped by on Friday night because my mother wanted to hear the Jerry Schneider polka band. Mom, Sue & Stephanie were with us and we had a great time drinking beer and dancing to the polka music. Check out the pictures!
The Sunday before we left we (Tony, Mom & me) went to the Fall Fry for the Black River Advancement Association and Fire Department. The Flight for Life helecopter landed and we got to see it land and check it out. We have alot of helecopters flying over our house in San Diego. But it rarely happens in Black River. So it was exciting! Here are a couple of pics of the fall colors and sights around the Black River area.
10/9 thru 10/11 - This past Monday we headed down to Hartford spending the night with my sister, Sue & Randy. The next morning we were heading out on our road trip to Indianapolis to visit daughter Sandy for a few days. We had a great time in Indy, more specifically, Fishers, IN. Sandy & Travis were gracious hostesses. While the kids were in school, the adults headed down to see Monument Square and the Canal Walk in downtown Indianapolis. The weather was a bit nippy, but it was a wonderful, relaxing afternoon.
After our sightseeing we headed back home to enjoy a great evening of Travis' home made pizza, games with the kids, and great table conversation. Oh, yeah, and somehow Sandy managed to talk me into some quick alterations to her halloween costume and a couple of mending jobs. Oh, and I forgot, I also got to stretch spider webbing across the ceiling in preparation for the 5th annual Combs Halloween party!
That catches us up to Tennesee which is where we are right now. Will post a bit more later. It's time for dinner!
