Tuesday, July 18, 1989

I walked my 2 miles around Beaty track.  We got our groceries & now I'm having a cup of coffee & decided to write a letter.

Was nice to talk to you on Sun.  My poor Mets - they lost on Sun & lost a doubleheader last nite & are now 5 games behind in 4th place.  No more dynasties in baseball.

Dale's friend Mark got a Camaro to be fixed up - about a 76 & he called twice on Sat. to tell Dale & Dale wasn't around.  On Sun. he called again &^ when the phone rang Dale said if that's for me I'm not home.  But it was Mark so I called Dale.  There is a girl calling Dale & I don't think he's interested.  Dale will help fix up the car.

Dad is going to paint the front porch this A.M.  He played golf yesterday.

Dave Swanson is getting married Dec 31st & has Lar to be in the wedding party.  They want to go to Atlanta for Christmas & this might change their return home plans a bit.

Lar got his 2nd int. check from the estate (2300.00) but nothing has been done as to raising his wages yet.  And he is really busy with his extra hour work.

Last Sat. he quit early (4 p.m.) & Lar & Kim played golf with Mike Brindis & then had a cook out at his parents at Red Oak.  They had a good time.  Mike doesn't work & he is so heavy - must get some kind of compensation.  Result of drugs.

The soccer team has won all the games they've played.  Last Sun. Lar & Kim were invited to one player's home & Lar enjoyed their hot tub after the game.

Thurs. nite we go to Clarion River Inn for dinner with Benson's, Hollertz's, etc.  We were there last winter & it's so nice & will be nicer in the summer.

Barb  got a perm last week at Penney's & her hair looks so much better with more body & some curl.

Last Sun. was Dad's last Sun. at the Valley but we'll be back the 1st Sun in Aug. which is Pastor Tomaria's 1st Sun.  Reason: one of the couples is celebrating their 25th wedding anniv. & after the service they want to renew their vows with Dad having the honors or doing the honors.  There will be an aft. installation service Aug. 13 or 20th & we'll be out there for that.  We plan to attend church there occasionally.  Walter & Emma Johnson were there last Sun.  We must be back in their good graces!!!

Lar & Kim got an old ice box type refrigerator for their new room.  Got it thru Sears catalogue.  They got wallpaper for the living room but haven't had time to put it up - a winter job.

Once the letter is sealed I'll probably remember something I wanted to write.  Give Andy a big hut & kiss from us.


Our lottery is at 60 million & Barb got a ticket for me & one for her.  Fun to dream.
