Awake: 5:53am    Temp 31    sleep 6+25    high thin overcast    overnight @ Nicktown.

This morning @ 8:00am Mass, we found out that our dear friend & 1st cousin, Anna, passed away after some (2) yrs in a rest home. Our sympathy & prayers go out to my good friend & 1st cousin, Florentz, & his family.  

Yesterday my 1st cousin, Eileen, sold us tickets for today's annual "Respect Life Prayer" breakfast, sponsored by "Citizens Concerned for Human Life" @ the Holy Name Church in Ebensburg.  Michael Ciccocioppo, executive director of "Pennsylvania Pro-Life Federation," gave a very moving talk regarding respect for life from conception thru natural death. Some (350) people attended including quite a few Nicktowners.

Mid afternoon, K & I called our youngest daughter, Katrina, in Denver to wish her a "Happy Birthday." Later K & I attended the vigil 4:00 pm Mass in Nicktown. Then, Theresa, Kathy, John & I enjoyed a very good pizza with our Shock Top beer @ the Nicktown Bar. As we were finishing up our gab session & beer etc, Bernie & Dennis joined our table for some more talk with deep thoughts.

Back in our home-on-wheels, we finished watching: "Murder on the Orient Express" with Albert Finney, Lauren Bacall, Martin Balsam, Ingrid Bergman, Jacqueline Bisset, Jean-Pierre Cassel, Sean Connery, John Gielgud, etc. Elequent all-star production of Agatha Christie's whodunit set in the 1930's, with unrecognizable Finney as super-sleuth Hercule Poirot, and all his suspects on the same railroad train. 1974. What a story! All you suspense & murder mystery candidates out there.....try your sleuth skills out on this winner; just don't read about it 1st!

Lights out: 11:11pm.
