Company Comes

We had the pleasure of having the Bilslands come and stay overnight with us. It was a quick visit but Jeanne and I managed to get in a lot of visiting time. Just what we needed.

Jeanne's daughter, Megan, is 4....she is beautiful....such a beautiful complexion.

We live right next to the "Big House." That's what Leavenworth is known for. I took our guests to see the buffalo that roam in the fields near the penitentiary...unfortunately they were in the far field and we really could not see them. We did stop to take a peek at the look out point.

Here it is....it was the largest maximum security federal prison in the United States from 1903 until 2005. It is now a medium security prison. Al Capone, Machine Gun Kelly, and the Birdman of Alcatraz, Robert Stroud are an example of famous inmates who were imprisoned here.

I could not get a good picture of the kids....it was so windy and bright. Here is the best shot. Jack(Jeanne's son) is on the far left, Andrew, Christian holding Lucey's hands, and Megan.


Jeanne and I--
"Thank you Jeanne, for traveling to see us....I really enjoyed our time together."
