We stayed with Matt’s fraternity brother Jeff’s parents. They were SO excited to have us. They said seeing Jeff’s friends (even though I have never met him...) made them miss Jeff. We were glad to make them happy. We relaxed in their backyard for a while. We played with their bagel (beagle / basset hound) Emerson (not named after the college Matt & Jeff went to...well maybe subliminally).
We had a wonderful home cooked meal of meat loaf, corn, home fries and caesar salad (with homemade dressing). The meal was cooked by grandma (who was 91 and still going strong!). Dessert was grandma’s famous chocolate cookies (which they gave us extra to take on the road with us).
We watched a little TV then hit the sack. I got to take a nap on the drive over but Matt stayed up all day so he was pretty exhausted. Chicago tomorrow!
