Kathi & I up at 7:30 & she to Grubers for the church service of Class of ‘59 & finale. I made a chicken & dressing casserole & corn casserole. David & Karen arrived at 11:00 & David right to work rasing the railing along the steps to the river. To Lowe’s for bolts, etc. He brought 100 copies of Terradise Nature Preserve brochure that he printed. Karen helped in the kitchen & brought a birthday cake & 32 candles for Jed’s birthday.
Josh & Caroline & dog Ellie & cheese & flat bread. Chessie retreated for the rest of the day to the top of the refrigerator. Strangers drove in while David was cutting up the big sycamore limb that fell. Kathi & I at 1:00 to Claridon Prairie so she could see Gale – had 4 to tour including Nan Kennedy again. But didn’t have Jed & Susannah’s raffle art they won. Back home just as Ed & Carrie Hutchman came with several of their wood carvings to show Kathi. Then Olgua & her caregiver, Mary White, arrived & with a walker & the ramp Olgua got to the deck to watch David & Josh work on raising the railing. Call from Sarah – all three ill – so not coming leaving just the family & Caroline for supper. Jed blew out the candles – David transferred discs. All left by 7:00 – Kathi & I exhausted.
