Thanksgiving
Picked Mary up at 8:30 with station wagon loaded with her desk to take to Josh and Jed. To Cincinnati by 11:15. David and I to his office- showed me Foxbase and his network linking all his computers. David created my brick database files in Foxpro. Susannah made cranberry tarts, Sarah sugar cookies, Josh mince pie, Jed pumpkin pie. Karen did turkey dressing, and with turnip and lima bean garnish. cranberry ring, sweet potato crown, and delicious clam chowder. All delicious. Back to office but Cathy Meister took all the time making invitations to their open house. Back to visit before leaving at 6:00. Took a computer to Littleton Funeral Home in Springfield for David. No UPS service over holiday weekend.
Home about 9:30 p.m.
Kathi called about 11:00 from Tok- said Wrangell Mountains were beautiful against blue sky. No restaurants open in Tok, so they had a hot dog at convenience store and a Klondike for dessert. Taking popcorn back to sleazy motel. Weather 20 degrees
