Summer 2014

Wow ... it is summer time again, and I have neglected this blog.  My schedule has lightened up a bit due to some changes in our extra-curricular activities, so I am hoping to return to this a little bit more regularly.

We started off our summer with a week-long trip to Chicago.  We took the train from Omaha, and enjoyed a fun week.  Here are a few pictures from our trip.

Lunch on the train.
Joe was the Host and had just won a Presidential Service Award.
He has been with Amtrak for 15 years.

The Field Museum ... Everyone's Favorite!
