Nana and Papa Go to Town













Early on Sunday, August 16, Nana and Papa packed some sandwiches, granola bars and fruit in their day pack and got on the BNSF train from Naperville to the big city of Chicago. From there they got on the 124 bus to Navy Pier but got off before that destination so they could walk a couple miles to Millennium Park to view the new sculptures. How nice thy were. A little weird but nice. From there they decided to walk to Navy Pier but got sidetracked on a walk out along the Chicago River to view the Centennial Fountain and Water Arc. First time they had seen the arc in person. That accomplished they walked another long way to the Pier where they were able to get some good seats to watch the air portion of the Air and Water Show. It was a long, tiring, fun day but Nana sill looked as fresh as the daisies planted at the pier.

Neat! It's great to know you don't spend ALL of your time working and doing yard work and taking care of Gram. :)

"Fresh as the daisies planted on the pier". I like that!!! Sounds like Peg. Glad you guys got out and had some fun. Thanks again for being such great grandparents (and inlaws).
