Fish Fry

The Washington Burbank's traveled this weekend to visit the Illinois Burbank's. The occasion was Uncle Ron's annual Fish Fry. It was a party weekend. And we had a great time.
Lucas got to meet his great grandfather for the first time, Grandpa Buck.

Randy taking Lucas on a ride to gather fire wood, the fire pit burned all weekend.

Uncle Kenny and Aunt Debbie.

Big Joe was the cook for the weekend. Let me tell you - no one went hungry. The fish was delicious!

Our sleeping quarters for the weekend.

Grandpa, Grandson, and Great-Grandson

The Burbank Boys

Add in some girls.

Uncle Harry, Buck's little brother -his girlfriend, Leela, and Clem's (Buck and Harry's sister) son Rod, and his wife Jeanine. Clem and her husband Al couldn't make it due to Clem's health.

Brothers

Saying goodbye.
Future biker? I hope not.

Saying farewell to Uncle Ron.

We had a few hours to kill before boarding our plane, so we went to visit the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial, aka the St. Louis Arch.

It was a very cool museum.

Much to Randy's distress, we ventured to the top of the Arch.

It was so surreal to be able to look straight down from so high up, 630 ft.

We ended our trip on Lucas' street. How perfect. And as usual, he was a great traveler. It amazes me how well he does. And, by the time he is two, he will be a world traveler...
The weekend was quick, but the memories will last a lifetime.
