Awake: 6:20am Temp 34 sleep 5+56 sunny overnight @ Ravenna, Ohio.
After breakfast, we leave @ 9:10 am using the Suzuki, motor (45) miles to Canton, Ohio & visit my 96 yr old Aunt Bertha, who has no wrinkles, a sharp mind & scoots her wheelchair freely around the care center facility. She is well liked & the gang she hangs out with guards her parking spot religiously. We spend a delightful 1+05 hrs with her & then drive north on Whipple Road to visit the store: “Once upon a child.” Kathy buys a few shirts for children & I buy a pair of shorts.
Next we motor about (15) min & visit my cousin Mickey & her husband Roger in their condo. We spend over (4) hrs catching up on each other’s activities, past & present. Mickey serves us “high tea” with healthy homemade cookies. Eventually someone mentions more food; a few phone calls later, we motor over to Betty Ann’s home & she joins us for dinner @ the Perkins Restaurant on Everhard Road in Canton, Ohio. Kathy & I each have our own meal: Grilled Tilapia fish dinners. Today was fun & visiting these good people was long overdue. We return to our motorhome by 9:10pm.
Watch DVR movie: “The Naked Prey” with Cornel Wilde, Gert Van, Den Bergh & Ken Gampu. Harrowing, well done safari movie; African natives give prisoner Wilde headstart before they chose in on him for the kill, forcing Wilde to combat them with savage tactics. Memorable brutal sequences. 1966. Fantastic story; caution: hang on to your chair when viewing.
Lights out: 12:05am
