The kids received a free cruise on the Celebration Belle from the Moline Public Library (from their summer reading program). Due to the extreme heat over the summer (and our busy schedule), we kept putting the cruise off. We looked at the calendar and realized we only had one day that would work since the sight-seeing cruise is done for the season at the end of September. Matt was already scheduled to be out of town and Katie was going with a friend to Starved Rock. We discussed not going on the cruise, but decided to go ahead, even without Matt & Katie. I asked my parents if they wanted to go with us and they brought my niece, Kayla. We ended up with a beautiful day - lower 60s and a bit breezy - but we bundled up and enjoyed the cruise!
