Nice Weekend Away

We've had a busy but fun weekend away from home! We left for Kansas City Fri. morning to help Bill's younger brother move from apt. to his first home. Bill's mom went too. The move, including king size bed, big couch, cat and fish went better than expected! Here are a couple of his pictures to show what a nice place he's bought - congrats Jim! I totally forgot to take any pictures during the actual move.



Since Kansas City is known for its barbecue, we requested that he take us to the best place he knew of so he took us to Smokehouse BBQ last night - yum! This morning we went to Corner Cafe for a very good breakfast - best pancake I've ever had. They have huge cinnamon & caramel rolls which we brought home. Should've taken a picture of them but thought of it after chunks from both had been eaten. (still some left!)

It's a 5 hour drive from here to Kansas City. On the way home today we saw these pretty, frosty trees for quite a while, lots of turkeys and deer in the fields. Unfortunately, it was icy for a ways especially around Des Moines where we saw several cars that had just slid off the road (people still inside vehicles). Glad to be home!

Thanks for taking pictures of Jim's place! I've been asking for sometime to see his paint colors. Looks good!
