Debi and I started the month with trip to Indiana and a visit with Landry.

Downtown Bloomington

Kelley School at IU

IU Football Stadium

After a quick visit with Landry we are off to Jonesboro Arkansas for the Labor Day weekend.

We passed this city on our trip.

We arrived in JB on the 4th - Friday evening.

The Pasquier's arrived earlier in the day.

Bedtime

Everyone has a screen.

We spent Saturday on Northfork Lake.

Our day started with a 2.5 hour drive to Fout Boat Dock where we rented a pontoon boat for the day.

Our Captain Mick.

Uncle Nathan came up with this glove and duct tape to protect Peters cast. It worked great !

Our boat came with this great tube.

Our Spotter.

We went exploring on this shore excursion.

The boat had a hard top that served as a diving (jumping) platform - FUN !

We closed out the day with a family float then the drive back to JB.

The plan was to get back to JB in time to watch some of the LSU - McNeese game.

Well we all know how that turned out.

Sunday started with fishing in the Lake behind Nathan and Kristin's house.

The fish were not very hungry......

After fishing it was time to celebrate birthdays.

Oliver's 4th and Peter's 5th

While the kids broke in the new toys the adults prepared Sunday dinner.

Pork Ribs

Dirty Quinta

Baked Beans

Tomato and Cucumber Salad

After dinner we gave fishing another try.

Nathan caught one.

Mick returned Nathan's fish to the lake.

The Pasquier's departed Monday morning and returned to BR.

Debi and I stayed on for a few more days.
