Photos: Drive to Fremont & Omaha

 Today I went to Nebraska Quilt Company in Fremont to pick up my Bernina, stopping at Fremont Lakes State Park on the way.  I continued on to Omaha to visit Loren.  On the way home, a sundog appeared in the western sky.  I again stopped at Fremont Lakes, as the setting sun was turning everything to gold.

There are both Greater and Lesser Canada geese on the lakes.

Grain trucks are busy this time of year.

Once upon a time, when Caleb was about 5 years old, we were driving past this cemetery in Fremont.  Hester, 9, suddenly gasped and pointed at that tall chapel there in the middle of the cemetery.

"Ohhhh, look!!!" she breathed in a tone of horror.  "Too many people must've gone into that church, and it sank right down into the ground, and left nothing but the steeple sticking out of the ground!"

Caleb stared in astonishment.  "Oh, no!" he exclaimed, quite horrified.  "What happened to all the people?!"

And then both Hester and Lydia, 7, went into throes of hilarity.

Caleb looked at his sisters reproachfully.  Then, "Hester," he said quietly, and that was all.  😆

Spotting something edible, he dives...
