the end destination of our western road trip was seward, nebraska, where we met pete's side of the family that we see much less often. the neukirchs have spread themselves from california to massachusetts so getting everyone together in one place was quite an accomplishment! other than hanging out together, the main driver for our reunion was uncle paul's new barn/workshop/house. it was also the fourth of july - and seward is the small town 4th of july capital.
we had a great time! paul gave us a tour of the corn field and his new high-tech irrigation system. we went to the 4th of july parade (where we saw many interesting things...i'm not sure if there were more politicians or czech queens). we played a round of 4x4 croquet on the south 40. and most importantly, we blew up a lot of things! it actually felt a little bit weird to the crew from california...if we had lit anything on fire here the whole state would have burned down. thanks family for the fun weekend!
