I woke up this morning at 6:15 or so and after eating a little breakfast, I hopped in the car with my parents and sister and headed out to Highland Park, where my sister would be playing with the Elgin Youth Symphony in a concert held at Ravinia. Though our directions said it would take an hour and 10 minutes to get there, I got us there in an hour flat. I was fortunate to not get pulled over by the cop I passed going 80 mph. My parents and I dropped off Jill and then hung out around Highland Park for a bit until the concert. We checked out a nice beach in neighboring Glencoe and walked around for a while for exercise. Then, we went to the library and I read some of Frank Peretti’s book, The Visitation.

After the concert which was very good (as usual), we mingled a little bit and then headed back home. I ate a quick lunch consisting of leftover pizza and apple juice and then headed out to fix my mom’s piano tuner’s computer. Four hours and a computer with working burner and mouse later, I arrived at home, only to head back out to hang out with Ross Huntley and Gabe Gorsline, friends from MSOE IVCF. If I leave in a few minutes, I should get there about the same time as Gabe.

I would have expected to be bored these next few days with Stan in St. Louis but I’m keeping myself busy with my web site, driving people every which way, hanging out with other friends, and working. Tomorrow I wake up bright and early once again to drive my sister to Ohio for Credo.
