Mother's Day

We were camping this weekend. We got home about noon today. The boys asked Carol if she wanted to go out and eat. She said all she wanted was some pizza and coconut creme pie.





Kevin left and came back with pizza and lemon meringue pie. Oh well!




Pere Marquette State Park, Grafton IL




We just spent 4 days camping at Pere Marquette State Park with friends. The weather looked a little iffy but it turned out great. Sunny and wonderful.




Two years ago we camped here and the bugs were bad. Right after that we bought a screen room for the Aliner and we needed it this weekend. It worked out good.




The Illinois River & the Mississippi River were both in flood stage but they had gone down enough for us to get to the campground. We had reservations in two weeks for Caryle Lake but the Corps cancelled them The lake is so high the campgrounds are flooded.


Some of the gang we were with this weekend:














We got some bike riding in too.











You never know what you will find while out bike riding.


We had a great time.
