Karen's Birthday Weekend

The Illinois River is still rising.  It is supposed to crest soon, but we have heard that before.  The state of Illinois has now set a record for the wettest recorded June.  On Friday night, we visited our friends new house in Springfield.  On Saturday, we all came to Peoria and watched the Peoria Chiefs play. We also saw fireworks and a concert by Jason Gray, making it a long but enjoyable day and night. Sunday was Karen's birthday, and her dad stopped by to visit on the way up from a class reunion in Nashville.
