The annual 4th of July party is a big deal at the Kleber home. Lots of red, white and blue. Elizabeth puts on the party each year, in part to recognize her famous ancestor.

Many of my good friends are the fellas I grew up with in Northfield. For the last 10 years we've been going up North for a long weekend. This year we spent a few days at Kent's mother-in-law's home on Gull Lake near Brainerd. It was a perfect weekend with great weather. Here's a picture of her lake home. The following pictures were all taken over the weekend.
