Awake: 6:45am Temp 64 sleep 6+06 wind, rain…then sun overnight @ Indiana, PA.

K & I attend 10:00am Mass @ St. Thomas More Church with the Foote Family. Afterward, we go back to our motel, change clothes & join the rest of the group @ the Castle.
My bug is taking more of a grip on me everyday & today I am losing my voice; I continue to strive, with caution, to avoid passing the bug to someone I like.

Dinner: pulled BBQ pork sandwiches, twice baked potatoes, leftover green beans & salad.

Around 6:00pm, (9) of us leave the Foote Family to go rolling skating @ the Indiana Roller Rink; a short but quieter evening for the Footes. Most of us had not skated for yrs, especially K & I. It brought back memories of 1959, when we went roller skating in Chicago on one of our earlier dates; holding hands & rolling along together. It was great fun & our children & their mates took full advantage of that rink most of the time save for a much needed break now & then. Jerry was the only youngster with us & he tried his best to skate alone….a “no-go” but with Nick & Eriko’s help Jerry did circle the rink several times. I had (3) falls & (1) collision; not my fault & Zack was my witness. Kathy & Katrina physically supported Karina on many turns around the rink; this was Karina’s first attempt at skating.

We got back to the Foote Castle around 9:00pm; time for chatting with popcorn. Super server Jerry gave us unsurpassed service & kept us fed with pretend foods throughout our evening. The superb cook behind the new play kitchen (Nick) did wonders with combinations of different selections & little delicacies; all wooden of course; who could possibly ask for anything more.

Lights out: 11:58pm
