So we're getting ready to move next week. We are trying to see and do all the things we haven't gotten around to.
First is the Union Pacific Railroad Museum
They had a section that talked about Abraham Lincoln's influence on the railroad.
Next is part of the Mormon Trail. This is the spot where the Mormon Battalion left from.
This is Lincoln seeing what kind of bugs he can find (this happens almost every time we do something outdoorsy).
Then we have downtown Council Bluffs. They do lots of fun things at this park. And if you want to see a black squirrel, this is the place to go.
The next few are at the Lewis and Clark monument. The first two are from May and the second two are from the other day. I like that you can see how much the Missouri River has flooded. The river is the body of water at the top of both pictures. The large body of water is the flood plain.
MAY
Then we have the Fourth of July. We had a BBQ with some friends in the ward and then went to the local fireworks. It was a really really good show. They had so many fireworks that I had never even seen before. I'd also like to point out our 4th T-shirts. If you can't tell they are US Air Force.
And last but not least we have Lincoln's official Air Force photo.

Wow, I had kind of forgotten you would be in Illinois so soon, YAY! If you hurry quickly moving you could make it to my Fabulously Festive Farewell Fiesta on Saturday! It sure was fun visiting you in Iowa though...
Wow, 5 weeks is a long time to be apart from your hubbs! How did you do it? Where are you moving to? If you come to Utah to visit, make sure you call so we can get together!
