Snow Storm Dec. 2010

 
 
 
 
Well this is what happens when the jet stream comes out of the south with moisture. It has snowed non stop for 3 days. At times it is light and then at other times it is heavy as you can see. Tony measured what had fallen in 20 hours on top of Jan and Gary's Suburban. Over 15 inches. We had quite a time getting to work this morning, but made it. It certainly was a day to stay by the fire and read a book or something.

Pioneer Ways

 
 
 
 
The kids and adults enjoyed learning how they did things in Nauvoo back in 1840. Making candles, rope and red bricks.

Trip to Nauvoo

 
 
 
 
For Thanksgiving, Mark and I along with Wayne and Stacy's family traveled to Illinois to be with Lonnie and Angel's family. The weather cooperated and we flew out on Wed. Nov. 23. We enjoyed a lovely meal at Mascoutah and then on Friday we loaded up and drove 3 hours north east to Nauvoo. We stayed at the Nauvoo Family Inn. Here are a few photos of the sites.
