Howdy, fellow bloggers. I'm still wondering if the North Aurora branch of our family is on board....
Received word today that Aunt Doris died on Sunday. It's been 2 1/2 years since Uncle Art died, and she's been living in Racine in an assisted living facility. She was 85, had Altzheimers and a very decreased lung capacity - was on oxygen 24 hours a day. God rest her soul.
Did any of you know that Bill Hach's 2 daughters, Ashley and Claire, are both students at Virginia Tech? Ashley is a senior engineering major, who was to have a class in that building in the early afternoon. Both girls are OK, but they had many friends who were victims. My heart certainly goes out to all who are affiliated with the school. Our world is full of a lot of terrible things. I believe that Julie and Brandon's friends Jonathan and Susan Frantz are alumni of that school.
Grandma is getting over an intestinal flu. She seems to be feeling better today. Pop and I plan to leave town on Friday, God willing. We sure have a lot to do to get ready. I'm hoping that my boys will stay in touch with Gram, at least by phone, while we are gone. We'll be visiting friends in Boulder City, NV and Truckee, CA, then going to Reno for the bowling tournament on Sunday and Monday. After that we are off to Hyrum and we anticipate a wonderful visit with the Chards. Will probably leave there on Sunday the 6th of May, unless they kick us out sooner, and be home late on the 7th. We're going there again the last week in June, since Pop has elected to join them on another river rafting trip through Cataract Canyon. I've elected to wait for them in Hyrum. Joie and Brody will keep me company.
Time for bed (I got up at 4 today). Love to you all!

Can't wait to see you! xoxox
ps - That's a BUMMER about Gram being sick! I'll give her a call toward the end of the week to see how she's feeling.
