More fun stuff--Father/Son Canoe Trip


 At ages 80 and 42 this father-son combo couldn't be held back.  They embarked on a two-day canoe trip along the mighty Illinois River on a beautiful fall day.

 
Picking them up was a little more traumatic (at least for me!) as I had some trouble finding the place where they ended up down river.  Also, the truck battery died before I found them and there was no one around to help me jump the truck!  Thank God for a good Samaritan who pulled in when I waved him down!  He not only jumped my truck but when I told him why I was there and what part of the park I was looking for, he said he'd seen my hubby and his dad!  He told me to follow him and took me right to where they were!
