It was a rough sleep for Ben and subsequently for mom and dad too. We woke up early, ate breakfast and took a quick dip in the pool. Ben seemed to enjoy it, although it was a tad cold. (I forgot the camera.) Now we're off to Illinois to see grandma Kuper and hopefully other family members. More later.
We spent some time with grandma and ate lunch with Buzz and Marilyn. It was great seeing all of them. Ben made grandma smile a couple of times. He was a big hit with everyone! We took some great pictures, then left the charger and connector wire at grandmas. Crap! Pics added later.
We started late again today. The 3 hour drive to Hoffmaster State Park was actually more like 6 hours. Chicago traffic and Ben needing to eat during the trip due to the delay. We actually tried to cancel reservations, but couldn't.
We finally rolled into camp at sunset. Matt set up camp and I soothed a very patient and exhausted Ben. It was perfect - a big tent, an air mattress, some food and a sleeping baby. It was perfect - until mom and dad got in the tent or should I say on the mattress. It seemed ok initially, but by 2am (I cked my phone) we were sleeping on the hard ground. The mattress had a big leak! So, Ben slept on me waking up 3 or 4 times frustrated wanting to roll. Around 4am, Ben and I finally moved ourselves to the backseat of the car. Much more comfortable!
