We also during this time have taken a trip to Niagara Falls

John, our adopted son from Ukraine, is here this summer

 A ride on "The Maid of the Mist"

It was great to get wet going under the Falls as it was about 100 that day.

 We just had to see the Lucy Desi museum in Jamestown, NY

The sets from the show are there and lots of memorabilia.

 Desi when a young man

How Mom and Dad would have loved to see this museum

The William Probeck's from Denver have enjoyed a week in Michigan

 Mom has just been so happy these days. I suppose she enjoys seeing everyone. Bill put some of Dad's old movies on a DVD 1955-1958. We watched them on the TV at SLC. It really seemed that Mom and Dad both knew it was all of us.

This is Kaelin, by the way, a sophomore at Colorado University studying Journalism and Photography.

 Bill, Dad and Erick

Erick is a senior in H.S. who enjoys football, soccer and is interested in film making.

Kathy and Dad. We really had a nice visit. It has been a good, good summer and more to come when John and Susan are here in August and then Nancy in the Fall.

Lena and Samuel have been with us

 Samuel loved the beach and sitting in Lake Michigan

 Lena is expecting another baby in late January so quality time with Samuel is a priority right now

Sarah's Visit

 Mom knew Sarah right away and patted my arm, then pointed at Sarah and said, "That's my daughter!"  It was a wonderful moment.

 Erika and Lucy came and visited with Sarah one day.

Once again Mom and Dad were happily sociable.

 Anne Aschauer came with Sarah one day and brought her harp. Everyone really enjoyed it and we hope to get Anne to come again some day.

 Dad was playful and quick with his comebacks in conversation.
