Fourteen hours on the road.
Our thanks to Laurel Kallman for managing this great tour. We are in Des Moines and heading home. The question is do we take a left on I 90, go
to the Black Hills and continue the magic or head back to Concordia for the BBQ
diner and the Welcome Home concert. We
had a great photo op with the Land O Lakes Choir at a rest stop in Kansas City. They are following in our footsteps. We sang happy birthday to Robert Nelson and
Jack Hoagland. We added bus drivers in Kansas City and our regular drivers Joe
and Al had an opportunity to hang with the boys on the bus from Kansas City to
Des Moines. We played cards, chess,
mental pattern challenges, made more lanyards and did Albert Einstein problems
along the way. We ate well, played well,
met new friends in McDonalds, and are looking forward to seeing our families but
not looking forward to saying good bye.
It has been a special privilege to share this experience with the boys,
the chaperones, Todd, Mark’s extended family and Mark. This is a treasure that will remain with all
of us forever. Thank you for sharing
your boys with us. See you next year. Your blogger and photo editors Greg Oasheim
and Matt Mayer.
