Hi All,
Saturday the plan, after I got off work, was to go to Cantigny Park in Wheaton, IL for the Support the Troops Concert. Well it poured rain for most of the morning while I was working and was still drizzling when I got off. I thought that we probably would not go to the concert. So I laid down and took a nap ( at our age they are really great) When I woke up it had stopped raining so we decided to chance going. By that time Bob and Vicki had called us to say they were already there and staked out a spot. By the time we got there the sun was starting to peak through the clouds. We met B & V and took a tour of the museum (I love that place) When we were through with that the sun was out and there was not a cloud in the sky. We met up with Phil and Lynn and settled in to watch a great concert. Oh yes, It was Lynn's birthday so Peg had bought six cupcakes and we sang happy birthday. Oh we have so much fun!

Yesterday, Sunday, Peg and I decided to go back to Cantigny since we didn't have time to walk around the grounds and take in the gardens. It was a beautiful day but a little on the warm side with high humidity. We decided to take the tour of the mansion as it was air conditioned. I have attached the pictures we took in the gardens.

I'm so glad to know that you and Mom are getting out and doing fun stuff! Those gardens look almost as nice as your yard (and that's pretty nice!).
