This is my Great Aunt Ione. She turned 100 years old in April. "What was the most amazing thing that happened in your lifetime?" I ask her. "Electricity," she replies, without hesitation.
Uncle John (age 86), Aunt Betty (age 90) and Aunt Ione (age 100) and myself as driver all packed up and headed to the Kinzer Farm on Monday. The day went perfectly with a stop at the LaSalle Nursing Home to visit brother Key (age 96).
After our lunch together, we left Key to his afternoon nap and headed to the Kinzer Farm. It was a lovely day for a drive through the country side.
With the old farm house in the back, father Ken (he'd rather I not mention his age, but he did turn 70 this year!), Uncle John, Aunt Betty and Aunt Ione.
A short but wonderful visit with friend Diana Carlson and Mom joining us for dinner on Tuesday made for the close of a great visit back to Illinois during such a beautiful time of the year.
Next on the calendar of events - graduation from Casper College Fire Science program. Mom and friend Evie will be driving out to join the graduation festivities! Can't wait!
