Memories in a Box

Family


After setting up on Site 23 at Indiana’s Paynetown SRA, we joined CJ and Phil in Bloomington for a visit that started off on the front porch of the century old house they call home. After a delicious dinner at Upland Brewery (a. Best Fish & Chips in Bloomington, b. Great microbrews, and c. Open on a Monday night in summer) we returned to the house where we thrilled Phil with our Bose surround sound system and unleashed a flood of memories for CJ with a box of memorabilia. Her baby shoes, a college paper, several report cards, the book The Story of Ferdinand, and more. The biggest smiles came when she found The Tiger Handbook, an club manual authored by her and Greg!
