Awake: 6:08am Temp 67 sleep 5+44 sunny – hazy overnight @ Navarre, Ohio.

I call my Aunt Bertha & ask if we could have another visit after lunch today; “that will be fine” she says.

Due to our discussions with Mark & Joan on Sunday, our 2nd visit with my Aunt Bertha was filled with questions such as: how did my Uncle Jake of Pennsylvania meet my Aunt Lucy of Ohio? And how long did my mother, Martha, live on their farm as a single lady? My Aunt Bertha answered all of our questions + provided us with a lot more detail than we expected. Her mind & memory are certainly functioning well plus she has no wrinkles, smooth skin, & beautiful, white hair @ age 95. This time, our visit lasted 1 hr & 15 min. We both felt better about allotting this extra time for another casual visit.

From here, Kathy visits (2) stores: “Pat Catan’s Craft Store” & “Once upon a Child.” Both were located in the same strip mall area just up the road. Would you believe, as Kathy was perusing the “Once upon a Child” store, a used clothing and toy store for kids, I became curious about the vast selection of boys clothes lined up on hangers along the wall. Some of them I thought might even fit a “tall, plump” guy like me; after checking this wild scheme out in the change room, I purchased (2) pairs of pants & (1) pair of shorts with lots of pockets.

Then we head south to Massillon & on to our campground.

7:30pm dinner by Kathy: Chicken breast, brown rice + peas & corn.

@ 8:10 pm Roger, Michelle, her Aunt Dorothy & Uncle Dick visit us for about 1.5 hrs. Dick & Dorothy were RVers in their younger days & couldn’t pass up the opportunity to see a modern motorhome of today. We gave them the special aunt & uncle tour. These guys had some great & funny stories of the so called, old days of camping.

Lights out: 12:17am
