Recent Happenings

Oh, boy! This blog is in serious need of an update.

The funeral for my cousin Chuckie was last week on Monday. It was nice, but very surreal. I drove Mom and Jake to Connersville, while my sister Lisa and her husband Jim came directly from Louisville to meet us at the funeral home.

One thing you never see here in Indianapolis is everyone pulled over on the side of the road while a funeral procession passed. It was like that all the way through town and down the state highway to the cemetery in Everton.

In other news, I went down to Louisville a couple of weekends ago to hang out with Lisa. Her neighbor Claire has a Kentucky Derby party every year. It’s always a lot of fun because it’s full of artists and intellectuals.

Claire’s derby pie is the best!

This past Saturday I spent the early evening attending my cousin Amanda’s wedding reception. It was just north of Connersville out in the country.

On the way back, I got stuck behind a tractor.

That’s about it! I’ll update more later this week.
