We left Romeoville on Sunday morning, The Carons gave us a 10 minute head start, but it wasn't too long before they were in my rear view mirror.  The pictures below have been reduced to a 450 pixel width.  They are linked to the full resolution picture, just click on the image that you want to view.  Turn your speakers on to hear the song Kansas City from the musical, "Oklahoma".  (Works best with the Internet Explorer Browser)

We made a stop at the Rest Area on the Kansas-Missouri border.	Patti and Elaina were quick with a smile.
Michael and Will jumped into the pool and....	hot tub
The girls got busy with some art work on the deck and....	in the room
The finished products.	Bill took the ladies shopping and we soon had pizza!
The girls painted my windows	Michael took some pictures as we headed for the players luncheon.

After lunch, the girls started trading team pins

I took Michael and Will over to the T-Rex Restaurant	Here is a piscivore it is a carnivorous animal which lives on eating fish.
Michael and Will	Do you know why fish are so thin? Because they eat fish!
Here is an herbivore. Looks like salads make you fat!	They tried to dig, but the shovel was bolted down.
The Skills Competition was cancelled because of the rain.  They did have a lot of fun with the Scavenger hunt in the shopping center.	Mike was a little tired after driving all night.
The Opening Ceremony went on in the rain without the sky divers, I guess they didn't like diving through lightning. Parade Video clip	Last year it was almost 100 degrees, so they jumped.
The rain let up a little during the parade of over 200 teams, but it really stormed while we were driving back to the hotel.
Kathie, Michael and I finished the night at Cheeseburger in Paradise.	Michael got bit by a dinosaur.
