August 2011 - Kansas

This is going to be a LONG trip, I hear. Rebecca and Barry are going on a weeks vacation and I've rested up for whatever comes my way. We met Wilma and Richard in Rochel, IL and ate dinner together.

The next day we saw Ronald Reagan's hometown.

We stopped in Iowa, and are on our way to Kansas again!

I'm getting to really enjoy my ancestor's hometown! I love to hear the stories about Sadie! Rebecca talks abou tthe book she is writing. Just being here makes me feel like I know Sadie already. Can't wait to read the book!

August 2010 - Kansas

So...I am going to Kansas!! Rebecca and Wilma are going on a geneology jaunt and they say I can go! Wilma flew into Lincoln and while Rebecca was waiting for her, she went scounting to...the courthouse.

I posed and couldn't believe how hot it was! Couldn't wait to get indoors, even though it was a boring afternoon with papers and things I didn't understand. After Wilma arrived, I rested in the van while they chatted.

Ingleboro Mansion B&B

I fell asleep and awakened in a beautiful B&B!

Loved my time here, learned lots about this girl Sadie and her family. Wonderful people. This is the site of her school.

I went back with Wilma, ready for a rest.
