Ron and Suzy

I've been entertaining my parents here for the last couple of days. It's been fun. In other places when people come to visit everyone becomes a tourist, but in Champaign there isn't much to see. We've looked at the university campus, my office, and the local historical museum, which is housed in the oldest building in the county and currently has a quilt exhibit on display. Yesterday we drove to Springfield to see the Dana Thomas House. Afterwards I took them to a Dairy Queen. Mostly it's been like a regular vacation, and we've spent a lot of time sitting around, playing cards, and talking. Dad's a lot more pessimistic about the Yankees season than I am.
