Greetings from Iowa:-)


Jacque and I are simi-well, simi-old, and living in Cedar Rapids. I was talking with Paul last night and we both found it hard to believe that Jacque and I will have lived in Cedar Rapids for 8 years come Jan. 1st. We have lived here in Iowa for 13 1/2 years.

Shortly after we moved into Cedar Rapids some idiot planted grapes along the freeway fence next to our house, so now, every fall it's like living in the Tri Cities, I can't breath, my eyes itch, and I'm even more miserable than normal;-) It's like being home. (For those who don't know, I'm really allergic to Grapes)

Jacque has fallen twice in the last couple of weeks. She's pretty bunged up:-(

We became Vegetarians in May. Jacque is handling it much better than I am.

Well, my secretary will be in for our morning meeting before long so I guess I better sign off. I've included a picture of our Retirement Villa. 5 1/2 more year:-)
Shanon, to get the image where you want it. Click on it and then drag it to where ever.

Great job on losing the weight mom, I am very proud of you. I don't think I could stay on a Veg. diet.

Thanks Uncle Ed for explaining dragging and placing. :) Pretty basic I should have figured that out. LOL

Aunt Jaque, Uncle Ed told me how well you are doing with being a vegitarian, that you have lost weight and are feeling much better. Following Leah I don't think I could be a vegitarian either. What are you cooking for Thanksgiving?

Good question Shannon. I'm interested in Aunt Jacque answer as well:-)
