Vacation Day 3





These are my parents. They are responsible for the genetic experiment that has become Benton Quest. I would have to say I am thankful for that. They have been married for 50 years and in this society, that is something to be proud of. I think they are great parents!






Here is the whole Quest clan. I am the youngest of the kids. We start with my sister and brother in the middle and then my other sister and me. Girl-Boy-Girl-Boy.





Nick and I with my folks. My folks are very accepting of Nick and have welcomed him with open arms.












After the brunch for my folks, we hooked up with a friend of mine from high school. Betty and I have been in plays together and have a long history. The town she was singing in was New Diggings, WI, this is an old mining town in SW Wisconsin and is a party mecca. (Becoming a gay mecca too!)




We drooled over met some of the local family members and even got a photo of David.





Oh, you wanted a picture of his FACE! Sorry!





We headed home and on the way saw some dinosaurs out in the fields. I guess Juraissic Park is alive and well in Wisconsin.


We got home just before the storms broke. We saw them brewing on the horizion and as we pulled into my parents' driveway, the sirens began to blow. It was quite the storm cell, the emergency radio wouldn't finish one warning before another warning would break in. Luckily nothing was damaged.

you are very naughty to shot the backsides of relatives.

What great family shots!

Happy to read that you were safe through the storms, too.
