Tuesday - May 23

Mark and I were out Daisy's door by 7:15 with 4 loads of  laundry.   Came into town and while the machines were doing their thing, we went next door to Gloria Jeans for coffee and muffins.     Lots of rain this morning and off and on this afternoon.
 
Took our clean laundry back to Daisy, put things away and did some more packing.     Came back to town, ran some errands including shopping at the new Gingerbread House and buying a few gifts for our granddaughters' birthdays.   
 
We took Donna Rae to Baxter's for her 85th birthday.    Great lunch and complimentary gooey butter cake!   Always a treat to be with this dear friend.

Took Donna Rae home, I got a mani/pedi and then we picked Connor up from school and on home.    Patrick and Anne are in Chicago today for his doctor appointment.
 
Connor and I played 2 games of RummiKube with each of us winning a game.
 
While we were in town today, there was an apparent suicide along I-74 which runs behind Kamp Komfort.   Traffic was backed up for 4 miles.   
 
Anne and Patrick returned home around 7.   After hugs and goodbyes we came back
to Daisy on this rainy night.  
 
Our boys with their new summer "do's"!
We'll see them in 1 month and 2 days!
 
It's been a very fun, fast-paced, calorie-laden 24 days here in central IL.  
  Lots of good times and memories - tomorrow,  moving on to North Carolina and spend
memorial weekend with our other 6 grandchildren!
