Our friends, Kent & Kathi, spent time with us after parent’s weekend at Wheaton College.  They arrived on Sunday afternoon in time to see Eric’s soccer game vs Hamilton (a 2-2 tie).  On Monday we took a long hike around our ski trails visiting the old foundation, a tree stand and bushwhacking the last portion.

On Tuesday they dug Herkimer diamonds with Billie Jo.  Kent ended up with several nice crystals which he is going to clean up and return to Billie Jo to make into jewelry.

Evenings we played board games; Scotland Yard or Apples to Apples.

Wednesday Kathryn accompanied them to Niagara Falls; they flew home to Eugene on Friday.
