70 degrees at 11:30 am on Wednesday, dumped 2" from rain gauge this morning from storm overnight, which had lots of lightning and thunder.
We took our travel trailer and spent from Friday afternoon until Monday after lunch at Harold & LaRhoda Neher's farm near Hiawatha, KS. Bill & Kathy Connelly brought their 5th-wheeler from Tescott, KS (Just NW of Salina) and the six of us were together for the weekend.
Played several games of Pegs & Jokers and, I think, we ended up with gals and guys winning same number of games!
Bill & Kathy are members of Kansas Chapter #3 IHC Collectors Club who had their quarterly meeting at the Brown County Museum. This Museum is on land that Harold & LaRhoda sold to the Museum many years ago, and they still farm the land adjacent to it.
They had a pretty good turn out from all over Kansas, and a local owner of a collection of IH tractors had them all out on display.
After their meeting we joined in with a pulled-pork dinner. We then spent time looking around the Museum. Many buildings with many old farm equipment.
Drove to Falls City, NE for supper that evening and then played Pegs & Jokers.
Sunday we loaded up and drove
around the area, looking at Harold
and LaRhoda's farm
The ladies were a bit crowded in the rear seat and Bill was sitting in a lawn chair directly behind me. Harold was seated in his electric three wheeler which he is able to drive up a ramp and anchor in the passenger's position.
Spent a time in the yard in the afternoon.

The Neher temporary RV Park
Sunday evening more Pegs & Jokers
and more delicious food.
Monday morning breakfast. The gals did some shopping and the guys looked around the homestead at Neher's where Bill collected some items to take home.
Will be working 8 am to 10 pm the next three days helping with the Glenn Miller Birthplace Festival here in Clarinda. Sunday has only one concert after lunch in front of the Glenn Miller Museum.
Later, LC
