<\/a><\/u><\/p>\nWhen we got there we dropped our food off at the dining hall and then took a tour of the grounds. We first walked down over the bridge to the swimming pool. It was their old pool but it still looked like it was in good shape.<\/u><\/u><\/p>\n
There are a number of cabins, all with Indian tribe names . . . . Ponca, Cheyenne, Omaha, Otoe. They were unlocked so we went inside the MaryLee Cabin, I know that\u2019s not the name of an Indian tribe, not sure why. It was very basic inside, just metal bunk beds for about 21 people.\u00a0 Very basic, just a place to sleep. There was a playground, horse shoe pits, volleyball court and the new swimming pool that will be finished soon. Then we made our way to another large building that Ken said is where they do awards ceremonies and presentations.\u00a0 We went inside there to check it out.\u00a0 It had a stage at the far end, a couple of rows of long pews and an old piano.\u00a0 Emma liked playing the piano.<\/u><\/u><\/p>\n
<\/u>\u00a0By the time we got done with the tour it was time to go back and eat.\u00a0 The dining hall is a nice large open area with a kitchen and a commercial refrigerator.\u00a0 The counter is very long but extra tables still had to be setup of for all the food that everyone brings.\u00a0<\/u><\/u><\/p>\n <\/u>\u00a0Emma was very hungry.\u00a0 Kalie fixed a plate and she and Emma sat down to eat.\u00a0 Then when Aaron, Ken and I got our plates and sat down, she made the rounds to each of us to see what we might have that she would like to eat. She loved running around and everyone was so glad to see her.\u00a0 Don Osborne usually makes up with kids pretty quickly and he was trying with Emma. But Carolyn was telling me that when Emma did make it around to Don\u2019s side of the table, Emma gave him a look that said \u2018don\u2019t even think about it\u2019, which got a big laugh from the whole table. For sure, she was the hit of the party:)<\/u><\/p>\n <\/u>\u00a0After eating so much food, we all headed out again to walk. Aaron and I took Emma to the playground and she went down the slide with me and a couple of times with Aaron.\u00a0 She really enjoyed the slide.\u00a0 Then Fuzz came over and we talked for a while.<\/p>\n A little later we made our way back to the pool and Grandpa thought he would just sit with Emma on the side of the pool so she could dangle her feet in the water.\u00a0 So he rolled up his shorts.<\/p>\n Of course, it didn\u2019t end there.\u00a0 Pretty soon he was walking with her, letting her kick her feet and splash with her hands in the water and before he knew it, her clothes were wet.\u00a0 Since they had packed Emma\u2019s swimming suit, Kalie took her up to the truck to put it on her and brought her back. Then she and Grandpa had a good time, both of them got wet.<\/u><\/u><\/p>\n It\u2019s always great to visit with family we don\u2019t see very often. Sue Ebke brought some things she had found while going through Aunt MaryAnn\u2019s belongings and she thought we would like to have them.\u00a0<\/u><\/u><\/p>\n <\/u>\u00a0Carie164<\/a>\u00a0(Carie’s Poem<\/p>\n Jillian165<\/a>\u00a0(Jillian’s scholarship)<\/p>\n Jillian166<\/a>\u00a0(Jillian and Andy dancing)\u00a0<\/u><\/p>\n On the way home, Aaron treated us to ice cream at Sonic in Beatrice and then we drove out by an older home on 5 acres that was for sale over by Pickrell. The place would need some work, but there were some out buildings and a two stall garage. A fixer upper you could work on as you had the time and money.\u00a0 Only $48,000. What a deal! I\u2019m always looking at property for sale, guess I take after my Dad.<\/u><\/u><\/p>\n <\/u>\u00a0I think a\u00a0great time was had by all of us.\u00a0<\/u><\/u><\/p>\n \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This year the Muller Family Picnic was hosted by Uncle Bill\u2019s family and they rented Camp Jefferson.\u00a0 Some of us had never been there before but heard a lot about […]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["entry","author-webmaster","post-646","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/steele.farm\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/646","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/steele.farm\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/steele.farm\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/steele.farm\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/steele.farm\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=646"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/steele.farm\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/646\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":663,"href":"https:\/\/steele.farm\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/646\/revisions\/663"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/steele.farm\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=646"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/steele.farm\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=646"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/steele.farm\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=646"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/a><\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
