Yesterday Ev and I drove 2 hours south to Freeborn County where we both grew up. We removed the flower urns from the graves of our families at the Moscow and Oakland Lutheran Cemeteries.
After that, we attended the Lutefisk Dinner at the Oakland Church. Ev is the fish eater in the family. I sample the fish, but mostly eat the meatballs and potatoes.
It was a good chance to see many of the people we grew up with. There just isn't anything like long time friends!
They usually serve about 500 at the dinner. I noticed how well 6 or 7 of the guys were washing dishes. I came to the conclusion they were doing a great job because they had all milked cows and washed a lot of milking equipment. They know how to get things clean!
