I have no Family in Iowa, and last time we were in Michigan, I hunted in Vain to find my parents graves! (I know they should be buried next to Grandpa Allen...) I would have liked to visit them just to see how the site was fairing. But that place had changed so much over he years. We didn't have enough time to visit the Genthers, but I never was fond of that side of the family anyway. (That's a joke.... kind of.)
