Indiana, Part II

En route to Branson, we stopped at an oasis in the desert of interstate highway for a mini-reunion. We stayed with my dad's cousin Ed and his wife Karen. They were wonderfully hospitable! They organized a fabulous cookout for the day we were there with almost all the fam. We met and/or reconnected with about 15 relatives plus my parents and grandma had driven out for the occasion as well. It has been a highlight of my summer to be getting to know my Indiana family again. I didn't get pictures of everyone, but here are a few:


Ed and Mason


Karen and Maddie


Elmer and Marianne (my grandma's older sister)


Quite a crew!

Thanks again, Ed and Karen!

Great pics again! We're so glad you all were able to visit the "Hill-Billy" side of the family down here in Southern Indiana. We thoroughly enjoyed having you. Any time the urge strikes you know where we are now. You're always welcome.
Our love, Ed & Karen
