Worked for Kass as they are in Philadelphia for Pete’s dad’s funeral. Not too busy. Got the rat’s nest Communication Center cleaned out- dust balls the size of golf balls- really filthy.

Brian McKee worked all morning had to replace antenna wire put an amplifier on, repaired hole in roof where antenna was pulling out, put a bracket on and got good pictures on all channels including 34 and 28. $275

At computer most of day- MCHS minutes, letters to John Bartram thanking for $4,000 to Heritage preservation endowment fund and John Cottrell for $1,000 from proceeds of fund to replace what we’ve spent for utilities etc. About 150 at MCH meeting to hear Moshers. Chuck was magnificent- made everyone relive the war days at SOP. Rob Rupp wants to edit their tape for showing. Dick West at shop after to tell me his stories.

Kass called when I got home at 11:45 Pete’s dad died suddenly in Philadelphia.

Picked up letter to displaced farmers at Quick Print. and got them in the mail by 2:20.

Got computers set up and SRC wouldn’t boot! Finally got all connections screwed down tight and when Mary came out went in and it booted right up. Also have both printers working from the box. Got the material from Colonel Hamilton introduction and closing protests into computer.

Sunny, pretty day. Took Rob Rupp’s paper into OSUM and checked with Ted Myers that all is ready for tomorrow. Stopped at McKee’s Antenna Place and made arrangements to have Brian out to fix antenna and VCR so I can play video tapes especially the one the Moshers gave me.

David gone from office by time I got there at 8:45 had my computer on a desk marked “Trella” (and Littleton’s computer and monitor on another desk marked Littleton) so I loaded mine and stopped on the way out for SRC systems to fix the print card. Jim Lee looked at it and asked if David had taken out the print card- no! Checked the screen and wrong info- checked the serial #- wrong computer! Had to go back and change it- took an hour. Ended up buying a box to switch printers they said it was a software problem they didn’t do that! Home about 4:00 forgot my dental appointment at 10:00 this a.m. Called Faith from Cincinnati and she called Caran.

Called Moshers to come out and see slides of Scioto Ordinance Plant area. Brought the Taylors. Good time.

Frustration with new computer that wouldn’t boot start up. Decided to take it to Cincinnati to SRC systems where David got it. There about 3:00 they found a switch 220 to 110 it hadn’t been turned to 110 volts before the machine went out.

On to David’s office where he had me test his sample TerraForms program. Over to Coffey Street for supper. Why is it that only Susannah runs out to greet me? The other kids (boys) were playing but Sarah just turned her back and went into the house without even saying hello. David yelled at me because I asked him questions about the computer. That puzzled me. He fixed monitor on executive.
