After all our rain, it turned cool so I baked cookies. It's almost too cool now - like Two Rivers! It's nice to see the clear skies, tho.
Carl thanks you for the cheese & beef stick package. It is tasty & we are enjoying it.
We tired T.V. pop corn (Lar gave us a package) & it is very good. Only takes about 3 min. on hi & very tasty.
Sat. is Kim's birthday & she & Lar will be here for dinner on Sun. It is also Edna & Wally's wedding anniversary.
We call Sig & Geo. last Sun. as it was their 40th anniversary. Linda & Rol & family were down & they all, Carolyn, Ken & Paul, too celebrated. When we called, Geo. was experiencing a lot of pain. Outings are hard for him.
Gen also celebrated a birthday. Johnny got her a beautiful blouse but it was a size 38, much too large for Gen.; Guess he went by the looks & not size. Ed gave her money for a microwave. This is Gen's last month of work & she is looking forward to retirement.
Kim told us about a new restaurant in the area - it has changed hands & they have added onto the eating area. Gamecock Inn, beyond Jackson Valley Country Club. Looks nice from the outside & Kim's grandmother went there & said the Prime Rib is delicious & they serve it Thurs.-Sun. 9.95. We plan to try it soon. We're always open for a new eating place. Last Sun. we went to Nic L Inn & enjoyed a nice dinner.
Sat A.M. we met Benson's, Hollertz's, & Shaffer's at Clarion & ate at the Clarion Clipper & it is really nice. Our next outing will be at Peek N Peak.
We're been getting wine coolers & they are thirst quenching.
How's the new job. Am anxious to hear about it.
Tomorrow we plan to pick strawberries. .We've bought some & they've been good.
Have you noticed how well the Mets are doing. Maybe it will be the Mets & Boston in the World Series.
Dad sends you his thanks. He leaves the letter writing to me. Things are as usual here.
Until July 2010, when her eyesight deteriorated, my mother wrote 1000s of chatty letters during her lifetime - to her parents, in-laws, sisters, children, friends. Tho she started to write to me on a regular basis in Sept '68 when I began my freshman year at SUNY-Buffalo, it wasn't until 10 years later that I decided to hold onto them. (Very inconsistently at first, to which the big gaps between dates attest.) These are the letters transcribed, annotated, and otherwise highlighted here.
