Thanks to those who submitted a guess for our latest destination (Martha and Emily). I had to laugh at your guesses, since it seems that you think we are smart and that we would go somewhere warm like New Orleans or Florida. NOPE!

We are in Chicago! And we are freezing! Ha!

We like it here, but the weather turned cold just before we left St. Louis, so we really aren’t used to winter conditions yet. But we are bundling up and getting out for a bit of fun every day. We have done a few fun things already. We went to stand-up comedy at The Second City. We went to Chinatown on Thanksgiving, had sushi, and wandered around the market. We had dinner and enjoyed the live music (Tom Holland, guitar) at House of Blues. We did a (very cold) Architecture Boat Tour on the Chicago River and it was excellent. We’ll be here for another week, so more fun to come!

Have a great week and stay warm!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Hello! We hope you had a wonderful holiday, whether you had a wild a raucous party with lots of friends and family, or you had a quiet day in! We had Linnell family dinner at my niece’s home (Erin) on Thursday. Then we had Mueller family dinner at Nathan’s brother’s place (Warren) on Friday. We ate REALLY well and enjoyed catching up and just being with family. We also went to see the new Wicked movie on Tuesday and comedian Ryan Hamilton at WiseGuys Comedy in Salt Lake on Saturday. It was a full and fabulous week and now we are packing up (again) so we can head east to snuggle some grandkids. Have a great week!

We’ve had a great week here in California. We heard some great chamber music, made a trip to the aquarium, took lots of walks, and spent time with some of our favorite people. Tomorrow we move on.

We’ve had a great week of traveling down the west coast and soaking in the views. We left Oregon on Tuesday and spent the night in Trinidad, CA. Then it was on to Santa Cruz and we’ve been enjoying some relaxing time with Uncle Ron and Aunt Martha, even with the wetter than normal weather.
