Things we did today







This morning Kris and I launched a little model rocket at Bradley Park. It was fun. Afterward, we wandered into the Illinois Arborist Tree Climbing Competition at the park, with lots of people in harnesses and climbing gear competing at tree climbing, tree trimming, and rescuing (pretend) injured climbers. (That picture of the climber IS right side up.) Later all 3 of us made zucchini baked goods and processed pumpkins (we still have more on the way). Kris went to a sleepover birthday party, and Karen and I had dinner across the river. Tonight we are watching the movie of the musical "Hair". It is bizzare to still remember the words to "Good Morning Starshine" from Mrs. Pischke's grade school music class. It is also odd to see Beverly D'Angelo, whom Karen recognized as the Griswold mother in the "Vacation" movies, running around topless (and the DVD is rated PG?).
