Reunion Arrivals

Uncle Earl Elmquist and Cousin Carolyn Elmquist - Johnson arrived today at the Limburge air terminal, the primary air terminal in Minneapolis, marking the beginning of the Elmquist family reunion. We shared lunch and family stories while at the International House of Pancakes, the I-Hop just outside the terminal and across the "street" form the Mega Mall of America.  Upon our return trip to Rice Lake WI we also stopped to checked out our reservations at Trapper's, our room reservations at America's Best Value Inn (check with Rocky for details), our breakfast accommodations at the Wagon Wheel restaurant and pizzeria     Me and two of the grand kids
at Zion church.
                                                                              where the family members will gather Saturday and Sunday morning, and finally Zion Lutheran Evangelical Church where we will gather for the Saturday afternoon picnic.  The excitement is building and is evident in attitudes of those who are arriving for the event.  There is still time for you to make the journey to Chisago City and to become part of the event.  I hope that you will do so, or at least check this family blog for pictures and comments that will be posted as regularly as possible.  Join us Friday evening for the kickoff dinner at Trapper's; I am sure that you will be glad that you did!
