Mary picked me up at 9 & we headed to Sandyville to pick up chocolates at Campbell Co. Stopped at Apple Valley & bought an elderberry pie & sticky buns at Amish Bakery. Took bean salad & sub sandwiches also to Doris Gibson’s for lunch. She is walking without a cane but has multiple sclerosis & Parkinson’s disease. Showed her the 1920’s Marion City Directories & checked out the Shuster’s homes. Nice visit. To Crawford Bindery & left the directories to be rebound. Stopped in Mansfield at Fazoli’s for lasagna – home about 6:00 – 250 miles.
