Hi All,
Dad, Conrad, Craig, Karla and Sean went to St Louis for Parker's wedding. Before the wedding, we saw the famous St Louis arch. It is an amazing story about how the arch was
built. We went out to dinner with Ryan
at a lovely Italian restaurant.
The next day, Dad conducted the sealing and did an excellent job. The happy couple looked very happy. Afterwards we ate lunch at Squires in St
Louis. The food was excellent and we
enjoyed the company and toasts to the bride and groom.
Afterwards on the way to the reception, we stopped in to
the Lincoln museum in Springfield. We got
there an hour before closing and the staff there were much putout that we
wanted to go in, but they finally let us in.
Afterwards we saw the home and street where Lincoln lived when he lived
in Springfield.
The reception was held at a member’s home in Champaigne
Illinois. We enjoyed talking to Ryan,
Doris, Riley and Rachel.
On the way home that night we had a run-in with a loose
tire. Our vehicle was following a
trailer. After a loud explosion a wheel
came flying off the trailer and hit our vehicle. Conrad got us safely off the road. After 2 hours we finally got towed to St
Louis.
Note below the picture of the trailer's axle. You can see the axle becaue it doesn't have a tire on it. It doesn't have a tire on it because the tire exploded off it and hit our vehicle.
