More from Pekin!

My uncles came in to town on Friday and we went out to dinner with them and my grandparents. As I was driving to the resturant we were behind the other car because we didn't know how to get there. We were stopped at a traffic light and my Grandpa Sarge was in the rear seats of the car infront and he looked back at me driving so I waved. He gave me the middle finger. lol.. he's such a funny guy!

On Saturday it was Sarge's 80th birthday party (his actual birthday is in June). Many family and friends were invited. The cake had images from when Grandpa was very young and in the military imbeded in the icing. The taste of the cake was fair.
After the party Michael, my uncle, had a bonfire at his giant shed not to far away from the party venue (the party room in a bar). Today we washed our clothes at Anne's house (we we're staying) because they were smelly from the fire smoke.

I also just finished mowing Anne & Ray's colossal lawn with their tractor mower! Lots of fun! I got some of it on video too. Those ride-on mowers have some power babby!

Off to Chicago in a few days.
