Awake: 6:46am Temp 73 sleep 6+25 sunny overnight @ Newell Campground.
Today turned out to be “Communications Day.” Mid morning, we take turns talking with
Melissa; both of the boys have runny noses & are not sleeping well, Kevin & Matthew are working on the shower knee wall & there was discussion about our up-coming rendezvous in Seattle
Nancy L. calls from Sequim, WA. Their house is finished & they are now living in it. They spent much of the summer landscaping & will be returning to their winter residence in Mesa, where they both really enjoy living, at the end of the month.
Sister Corinne calls from Lilly, PA. We share talk time. She accompanied Don & Josie to the funeral of our Aunt Aggie in Ohio & related a most interesting true story. When Aunt Aggie was dying her daughter, Betty Ann, requested that if she should come back after death to come back as a squirrel. During the funeral service, a squirrel entered the church, slowly walked in front of the altar & took rest under the casket before leaving the church. Many in attendance saw this event which brought consolation to Betty Ann. God sure works in strange ways!
Kathy does (3) loads of laundry.
Call one of our destination campgrounds near Seattle, WA. & make reservations. She had only (1) big rig site available for the length of time I asked for so we lucked out.
K & I attend vigil Mass @ Sacred Heart Church just down the road. They have started “saying the Rosary” before vigil Mass during the month of October.
Dinner: leftover beef roast, broccoli, brown rice & a mixed salad.
Call my cousin Flossy in PA to wish him a “Happy Birthday.” He & Anna drove to Ohio & back for the funeral of our Aunt Agnes.
Call my brother Don & Josie & wish them a “Happy Anniversary.” I think they have been married for (47) yrs now.
Evening movie: “Irma La Douce” with Shirley MacLaine, Jack Lemmon, Lou Jacobi, Herschel Bernardi, etc. Lemmon falls for prostitute MacLaine & will do anything to keep her for himself. 1963. Cute story with a very colorful red light district.
