Jean and John returned home safely this evening. They had a good trip. Jean enjoyed himself and was very appreciative. He set the pace and the agenda. John was there to make it possible. Most days, Jean would sleep till about noon, and they would go out in the afternoon. A couple of days, he was too tired to go out, and stayed in the whole day. On those days, John brought food in for him.
They went to 'Little Switzerland' and then to Frank L Wright's 'Taliesin' close by, which Jean has interest in. There was a lot to see in the visitors' center, and Jean bought a book to take home.
Then they spent a couple of days in Galena, Ill. Lots of history and charm there. They ate at 'Fritz and Frites' - yes you guessed it, German and French food.
Then on to Nauvoo, where they spent the last couple of days. Jean was especially interested in the Browning house, with all the historical displays about guns. The photos below are from Nauvoo and Carthage.
Now we are happy they made it back safely, and it went well.
