Awake: 5:11am      Temp 53       sleep 5+42      cloudy, windy, cool with drizzle            overnight @ Nicktown.

Today is Donna's birthday & we celebrated her young yrs @ our KK with nearly a full house with lots of snacks & goodies. After the meeting, I heard talk about a lot of chairs in the gym, so I went to investigate; sure enough, there were over (500) chairs.

His parents live in Cambria County & arranged for the service to be in the Nicktown gym, with a lunch afterward in the church hall.

Scott, who is our main man for the Geo-thermo unit, arranged to have a meeting on our home site @ 10:30am today. Scott was accompanied by (3) other Geo workers, plus my cousin Florentz, our builder & Kathy & me. Our meeting lasted about an hr or a little more. Scott was comfortable with what he saw & is looking forward to getting started.

Next, Kathy & I walked to the community center to participate in attaching yellow ribbons on poles & trees throughout the town. It didn't take long for K & me as we ran out of ribbons half way thru town ...as did Mark & Janet across the street from us.

On the other end of town, those volunteers also ran out of ribbons. We heard later that someone went & bought more ribbon to finish the main streets properly to greet the remains of Corp Twigg & the mourners tomorrow.

Dinner: Italian Sausage, with onions, peppers, tomatoes & mushrooms.

Lights out: 11:54pm.
