Awake: 5:53am Temp 60 sleep 5+11 overcast overnight @ Nicktown.
We skipped the KK meeting today & motored to Altoona via the Buckhorn on State road-36. We figured it might be closer & besides, I don't remember driving on the famous Buckhorn? Turns out, it was very scenic & (7) miles closer motoring on State road-36...& the "Beautiful Bath by Folcarelli" was on the east end of Altoona anyway.
We looked @ bath tubs:
toilets,
showers, etc.
Greg was our salesman & he was quite the gentlemen + very casual & patient. We did not make any firm decisions.
However, just down the road from Folcarelli's we did make a decision......to buy a small bag of pretzels @ the Benzel Pretzel factory ....for a small lunch.
Next, we found the Belden Brick & Stone Co.
We looked more @ stone samples then brick samples.
However, Kathy would still like to see the brick that we think we like on a house to get the big picture; the guys @ Belden Brick encouraged us to check out Frankstown up on the hill. We did & we were glad we did as it helped our degree of comfort?
Ah, the big picture!
As we arrived on St. Paul Street, going to our motorhome, there was a small crowd gathered on the street; neighbor Chuck & some family were taking delivery of his new Quad-runner. What a beauty.
His kids & grandkids were admiring the bright red machine.
Dinner: Crab cakes, rice pilaf with golden raisins, corn on the cob, cantaloupe, & grapes.
My brother Don called to let us know that our nephew Eric was found dead in a motel room, no further details at this time.
Lights out:11:27pm.
