"Just 3 More....."

There are just 3 more photos that I want to post from our days in Des Moines, IA.

I felt this was a very good one of Don with his siblings and their families. They are standing in front of the house that Don's grandfather built for his wife and their 6 children.

From left to right: Sandra and Bob, behind their children Jennifer and David, Don, Bonnie, Seth, Drew, and Eugene.


Here is a photo of just the house.


As I went to get the car from the parking garage, Don happened upon Bonnie and her family checking out of the hotel at the same time. This photo was taken by Eugene, prior to my pulling up in the car. From left to right: Seth, Don, Drew, and Bonnie.


We found out the next day that we were the lucky ones (along with Drew) with our traveling that day. There were storms out east and Bonnie, Eugene, and Seth, had to sit in a plane for 3 hours, on a runway, before they could proceed on their way home. Drew's flight went as planned, since he was flying back to California. Don's brother Bob and family had it the worst.........they had to spend the night somewhere (without luggage) and made it home the following day.

the family resemblance between Don and his nephews is really strong. Handsome fellows all!

Hi Michael,

I'm too lazy to open my regular email. This is a response to your comment on my blog. Are you suggesting that Koshi visit your backyard?? Wait an excellent idea! We would love to take you up on that.
