My schedule doesn't allow me in there in the day. Just early morning and late evening. Haven't been home for a number of weekends. This past weekend, I had a family reunion in IA. Had a good time. They were Union people. My g-grandfather lost 3 brothers in that war. They were troops from IA regiments. William
