Irene and I returned from The Netherlands early on Monday. We went just for the weekend to see our friend, Bas, get married. I have to say I don’t want to do that I again. I have been so tired that I have not been able to function properly since we got back. The wedding was really impressive, although a little different from weddings I am used to. What was really nice was that Bas’ new father-in-law presented me with a set of coins. He found out that I like coins and now I have three to add to my collection.

Now that we are back in Nebraska, we are both trying to recover. Hopefully, in a few days, I will be back to normal. Going so far for just a few days does not work. We will not be doing that again and definitely not during the school year.
