Awake: 5:25am Temp 59 sleep 5+03 partly cloudy overnight @ Nicktown.
After breakfast & working in the shade of the awning, I took the Stihl weed whacker apart & inspected it carefully. The carburetor is in excellent condition; next week I will buy a new sparkplug & maybe do some adjustments.
Later, I made an modification on our (39) yr old toaster. Kathy reported (2) out of (4) pass rate on having the bread slices pop up without burning.
K & I attended the 6:00pm vigil Mass @ Nicktown &, afterwards, had a beer @ the hotel before dinner. We met & talked with Eric who grew up in Nicktown & whose mother still lives here; in fact, Kathy & his mother, Louise, work together making noodles.
Dinner: Rubin sandwiches & ½ ear of corn on the cob.
Evening entertainment; we finished watching: "The Egg and I" with Fred MacMurray, Marjorie Main, Louise Allbritton, Percy Kilbride, Richard Long, etc. Colbert is delightful as city girl who marries chicken farmer MacMurray and struggles to survive on his farm. 1947. Great story! We thought it was better than the book. The evening is young & not much political stuff happening that we know of so we started another movie: "Airplane" & watched about 1/3rd.
Lights out: 12:21am.
