Earthquake in Armenia 50,000 to 70,000 dead.
Mailed two packages to Kathi- one Christmas and one with slacks.
Planned my annual Christmas outing with my best friends for today. Picked up Helen Romine and met Mary Hecker and Mary Jordan and Erma Hutchman. Took Bill a bouquet of yellow roses I rescued from Hemmerly’s trash can. To Ohio Village for lunch. Ham and potato pie- delicious. Then toured The Village shops. Back to Worthington to tour the Orange Johnson House. Also took Jane Trucksis some roses for the privilege. Then to Powell and bought doll clothes for Susannah. Back in to Columbus to view lights. DeSantis house and driveway impressive! Also state house and City hall. Every place white lights used. Home about 8:00.
