Berry is winging his way back to Indiana.
We had a wonderful time even if we picked
the coldest week of the year. Didn't matter.
We stayed warm and busy.

I took only a few photos. Berry took about 1200
plus several videos. He has post fodder to last
a long time.




















And, Sparky has a new buddy.

I'll be around to catch up with everyone
after I process all the memories.
