Spring Break 2017 - A Recap and News

This was taken as we passed through Cedar Rapids on Wednesday, 3/15/2017, en route to the Twin Cities & the Mall of America.

Spring Break 2017 was great. Spent time with family in the car. Played a game where one person names a band and the next person names a band that ends with the previous band so if Person A says, "KISS," Person B could say, "Shinedown," and Person C could say "Nazareth." It was surprising how many band names Alex and Megan knew. Karen didn't play because she didn't think she would know many bands but she did.

On the way back from the Twin Cities, there was a stop at Karen's brother's band's gig at Lofty's. It was a big place. We left Waterloo ~10:30 and arrived home around midnight.

As for this blog, the Inbox is flooded with emails. There are 789 unread emails and 286 of them are in the Inbox, which means I need new rules in Outlook to handle those 286 emails and to move them to specific folders. As the 789 unread emails are reduced, I am sure there will be multiple posts on this blog.

There is one more thing to note about Spring Break 2017. Cell phone ceased working and went into a reboot cycle. After a trip to US Cellular, then to Digital Docs, and a phone call to LG technical support, the cell phone is going to Fort Worth, TX, later today for motherboard repairs that will take 7-9 days. As noted previously, not using a cell phone was given up for Lent - it's like God is telling me that's a good idea. A ballpark 'return to me' date is the Friday prior to Palm Sunday. That is okay...

From a year ago...
