On Sunday after church, we drove to Omaha. I say we, because I had to drive the jeep behind the rig-we had a loose connection plate that hooks up to the hitch. We weren't able to find a place to weld it in Winterset so took it in Monday morning. When we saw that it wasn't going to be done in time for Jenna's track meet, we tried to rent a car. The guy was going to call us about one between five and five thirty. No call. At six, Don called and they were closed. He wasn't happy! So, we waited until morning and found out we'd get the jeep back around eleven-so, we waited. It cost us $630-then we were both unhappy! Since the day was ruined, we did five loads of wash. Then Russ called and invited us for grilled hamburgers, which was nice. In the week we've been gone, Russ took the La Crosse team to Kansas City for a tournament, and his brand new team came in second out of ten teams-and only lost the championship game by one goal. Jake and Dan each scored and did very well. Good for them! Jenna did well at the track meet, but even better- she was inducted into the Jr. National Honor Society! Brian was cutting grass and is going to play in the band at a mall tomorrow and we hope to see him. Joe (age 10), has been distributing flyers around the neighborhood to walk dogs for $1 a half hour. So far he has one client. This is the last week of school so they needed to study for finals, so we left after supper. Tomorrow I go to the dentist and then we have to look for a new chair. Don broke the arm off of his. We leave Thursday morning to head south to the Escapade at Sedalia, MO for a week, and then to Kansas City to the Genealogy rally for a week. These should be fun!
