Indian Boundary Park

Last Thursday, after the cemetery visit, I drove the children to Indian Boundary Park.  It's been my personal favorite for ages.  I remember taking Kris there as a toddler and while an only-child.  The place still holds its magic over young and old and middle-aged alike.  A lot of Jewish folks favor it.  I noticed more Hispanics.  The dogs, oh the dogs --- love to run around (leashed).  Mr Bubbles also ran-around (leashed), but was the noisiest when it came to squirrels. AJ & Farrah found two buddies who referred to them as Chinese number one, and Chinese number two.  Oh, well.  The place is such fun, no one took offense.

Here's CPD's official word on  Indian Boundary Park

    

Hunting & Fishing @ Cabela's

The testosterone level was almost overwhelming,
but I managed to survive my first visit to Cabela's.
Romy and Jared could spend the whole day browsing.
Farrah loves my authentic Chanel lambskin bag from NM.

Catfish

Alligator Gar Fish (yes, it's edible)

Witchy Woman from Narnia

We, as a family,  thoroughly enjoyed one of my "winnings" from the CSA Fund-raising event on Saturday night.  The 7 of us went to Rockford College to see CYT's production of CS Lewis' "Narnia".  We loved the acting, the singing, the costumes, the enthusiasm of the young actors/actresses, and the responsive audience (made up mostly of Moms, Dads, Grandparents, and Siblings, for sure).

Most memorable line from the show, by the White Witch to Edmund: 

I'm a witch; I don't need to keep my promises.

BTW, the Witch's real-life Dad was our impromptu parking-lot attendant, hehe.
