Awake: 7:08am Sleep 7+43 partly sunny… cold overnight @ Indiana, PA.
After our typical motel breakfast, we join the Foote family for 9:30am Mass @ Saint Thomas More University Parish church. Donuts afterward for Andrew & Matthew + about (30) other kids & many adults, downstairs. K & I did not partake in the donut extravaganza, but we did join in the socializing.
After feeding the Ford van a little more transmission fluid last week, we’ve experienced no more hesitation during early or late cold driving times. Today however, I decide to do a thorough check of fluid level & discover that the level is lower than I had thought. Kevin clues me in on an unopened quart from which I feed ½ of it into the transmission. Now the level is definitely in the vicinity of normal. I might as well check the radiator antifreeze level while the sun is still shinning & that too is low. On our way to the motel tonight we’ll make another stop @ Wal-Mart & buy a gallon of Prestone.
Dinner: the last of the leftovers; too complicated to describe. I remember the last of the pizza slices moved quickly @ the other end of the table.
During sporadic times, afternoon & evening, Nick continued giving Kathy & me more info & directions on handling the Kirsch Family Photo Gallery & we needed that. His best suggestion: buy the manual “Firefox for dummies” & use it as a reference.
Later evening, we all sat in the living room & discussed this rendezvous & how, if any, changes could be made for the better, aside from the airport taxi service.
We make a quick stop @ Wal-Mart for a gallon of anti-freeze en route to the motel.
Lights out: 11:44pm
