The Bird family spent July 4th 2020 weekend at Bostwick Lake. They participated in a photo shoot. The photos are available at this URL: https://www.edbergnet.com/Bird%20Girls/album/index.html.
I recently wanted to export my contacts to individual .VCF files for backup purposes and also have the ability to import them into other programs. There are ways to do this for a few contacts at a time by forwarding them in email to yourself or performing File -> SaveAs operations, but they suffer from scaling issues when you have many contacts export.
I authored this VBScript Outlook MACRO to export any Outlook Contact folder one afternoon.

Eric & Sue took a fall walk during Morton Arboretum’s Fall Scarecrow Festival on 10/10/2019. There were many Scarecrow’s placed around the lake and a display of glass pumpkins on display. You can see Scarecrow Pictures that Eric took.
Eric & Sue Edberg toured Morton Arboretum on 9/14/2019 and saw the “Legos” that artists created. These sculptures were placed around the lake path for a leisurely stroll. There are a pictures of the different Lego creations, and other pictures from past events, in our Morton Arboretum Image collection.
Sue and Eric Edberg are at Bostwick Lake Grand Rapids like usual over July 4th holiday. Virgil Perry took some picture of the 2019 Bostwick Lake Boat Parade on July 04 2019. It’s been very hot & humid this year but being at the lake is one way to beat the heat!
Eric & Susan are spending a lilttle more time at our mobile in Port Charlotte, Florida now that Eric is in full retirement-mode. We arrived in mid-Februrary and will stay through mid-April. Fred and Lissa Burgoon arrived soon therafter for a 1 month stay too. Weather has been great, warm, and we all are building our tans! Recently, the mosquitoes have been annoying. Here are pictures of our recent stay.
Sue and I visited Leone in late January 2019 the day before the “big chill” when the temperature fell to -23 in Naperville for 2 days. We left in a wind storm. Luckily, there was no traffic due to the alerts, so we made it without issue. Leone is doing well and Sue worked on collecting taxes and filing… Eric sat around and watched TV. This is what the house looked like from the lake. Were driving home Superbowl Sunday hoping it won’t rain too much!
Eric & Sue spent Dec 2018 at our Florida mobile home relaxing in the semi-warm weather. We relaxed most of the month. A few of the pictures are posted in the 2018 Florida December album. We are back home in Illinois until late Feb 2019 when we’ll returned to FL for a month or 2.
Arrived at our home in Port Charlotte, FL. early Dec for the month. Been relaxing for a couple weeks and saw this great sunset last night. Could not help sharing it here… We also had dinner with Dee and Jerry a couple days ago. Will return to Illinois on 12/30 for a couple months, then back to FL Mar/Apr timeframe!
My friends and I completed yet another Apple Cider Century bike ride. I’ve rode every year since 1986; 34 years straight. Eric Claeys has only missed riding a couple years; Jacques and Marianne missed a couple more. This year was scheduled to be a rain-fest, but the weather magically cleared up during the night for a beautiful morning of riding. I rode 50 miles over 2 days. I’m shooting for 50 straight years, but will have to depend on my health and home location in the coming years. I rode the shortest of the bunch and completed a shorter route (30 miles) since Susan did not ride and we had to travel to Grand Rapids that day for her fathers memorial service a couple of days later. I miss Dick already. Eric C, Jacques and Marianne were on track to ride the 50 mile route. Congratulations to them!
