Posted on August 31st, 2009 by PaThe Steidl cousins gathered at Lyn and Bob’s for a very nice reunion. It was great to see everyone, and we’re especially thankful to Lyn for arranging the event. Below are a few snapshots.

We went to COSI (Center of Science and Industry in Columbus) today with Mike, Caleb and Owen. It was a lot of fun for them and us. Ohio was threatened by thunderstorms, but we were spared all but some refreshing sprinkles during lunch and walking to the car for the ride home. I can’t begin to recount the exhibits, but here are a few photos.

Ma and I went to the Cleveland Museum of Art this afternoon to bask in some culture. We saw most impressive collections of art in beautiful galleries. One piece, however, really stuck in my mind. It was a Japanese scroll (ink on paper) from 1300. The subject was a humorous tale of a man with a talent — “musical flatulence”. Now, I can’t recall the story from memory, but there was something about his friends convincing him to consume a laxative . . . and something about him soiling himself during a subsequent performance [tee hee]. Anyway . . . I could imagine Sebastian and Caleb sharing such a tale as they walked along at Hocking Hills.
Oh, and in case you think I’m pulling your leg — SEE THE ITEM HERE .
My recollection was close, no?
