As you all know, I have envied Lynn and Joel their trip ever since it was announced. I was very pleased that they were able to stop in Springfield and visit and see some of the sights. I wish we could have spent more time with them, but we traveled to Kansas City on Sat/Sun to visit our own 10 year old grandsons and their sister. This left Lynn and Joel to fend for themselves for two days. But we had a little time to visit and share some histories because of the rain. We especially enjoyed getting to know Joel. He is a delightful young man. All of you going to the Nationals should be sure to look him up. He has been a real trooper on this trip and he's making his grandad very proud. Both of them will be welcome back to any of the coupers they have stopped to visit.
Lynn and Joel's trip should be a wake up call to all of us that have grandchildren, airplanes, and an opportunity to put them together. Lynn, sorry you had to babysit the extra dog and the old black cat so much, but thanks for taking care of them. Have a fun trip. Joel, Mrs. Doyle says thank you for the trivia games and the assistance with Nintendo. Come back and visit us anytime.
