Monday, October 28, 1985 (to JoAnna)

It is a lovely day and we just returned from a trip to the library and now I have 4 books to read.  But before I can start reading I must get a letter off to you.

It was good to talk to you and it was a pleasant surprise.  And the flowers are so pretty.  They are sitting on the dining room table.  Again thanks so much.  We called Paul yesterday and had a nice visit.  Later on in the afternoon Lar, Kim, Carl and I went to Nik-L-Inn (think that is how they spell it) for dinner and we had a good meal and a good time.  For dessert we buy the homemade fudge they have an it is so good with a cup of coffee.  Dale didn't come with us as he had to watch the Steeler game and it came on at 4 p.m.


Were you able to see any of the World Series games.  Sat. and Sun. nite gaMES WERE SO GOOD AND WE WERE ROOTING FOR Kansas City.  We were disappointed when the Mets lost but we'll look ahead to next year.  (Every once in awhile I hit the wrong key and get the caps so please overlook it.)  Typing goes faster than writing.

Carl is on liquids today as tomorrow he goes to the hospital for some tests.  He changed doctors and this one wants a thorough testing so he knows all about the person.  Blood test, chest x-ray, Barium enema, ekg. etc.  He is a very good Dr. and we like him a lot.  His nurse couldn't believe that he is 70.

The girl who gives me a permanent is expecting in Nov.  She has a little boys 3 years old and he loves to come over here so I help her out.  She was suppose to see the Dr. this aft. but he was delivering a baby so she had to come back.  Danny was with me and he didn't want to go home.  But he might be back tomorrow a.m. for awhile so we can play longer.  Got some toys from the attic -- cars, blocks so we have things to play with.  He's a nice little kid and fun to have around.  He likes my cookies, too.

We've had a frost so the tomatoes are gone and it won't be long before the flowers are gone.  The colors were beautiful this year.

We had a good trip to Mass.  Fun to be with my sisters.  We packed a lot of shopping and eating into a short time.  Left on a Tues. and came back the following Mon.  Saw my 86 year old aunt and she really looks good.  Still lives alone and will drive to the store but not in a lot of traffic.

I'm enjoying retirement.  The time goes fast and it is fun to do and go as we please.  We still like to eat out several times a week.  We're talking of going to Erie this week for some shopping at a larger Mall.

You are really keeping busy but that makes the time go faster and May will be here before you are ready.

Best wishes and love from all of us.
