The littles and I got up really early and headed to Kokomo. Their mommy made it home and it was time for them to be with her for the week. The littles slept almost the whole way which made a quiet ride. I paid ten dollars in tolls.
Upon arrival Cassie gave me a tour of her house and then I was on the next leg of my journey. Four and a half more hours to Galesburg. I missed the fish fry at the farm, but got to watch the end of the target shooting. I helped pick up shell casings and could tell that a few dollars got shot up. It was great meeting my friend Doug's family. Down to earth people and welcoming.
After we went to his parents' house, his aunt had to make sure I knew what a good guy my friend was. Wait...what? I know he is a good guy. At my age anyone in my life is going to be good people. I don't have time, nor energy to deal with anything else. I was just glad it was a brief part of our conversation because it felt like the conversations I've heard my mom have with my brother's friends.
