-10 ° cloudy high 20
David, Karen & Bob Hinklin to Terradise after Memorial Service at Presbyterian Church for Rita Erickson. David shoveled out driveway but found Prius wouldn’t start – SO I didn’t go to the Erickson home on Cambriodge Ave to be with the family.
Started reading Dave Decker’s ‘Lure of the Abyss’ – His caving adventures from 1985 with Gaylinn Ginn to a return to it (Buckner’s) in 2007 – David H was with him. So graphic- well written, descriptive – and his knowledge of geology – worldwide – Tasmania- Kuala Lampur, Australia, Belize, British Columbia, California.
Sorted through my Christmas letters to compile my ‘Travels’ for autobio- I was a real gad-about – Hawaii- Germany- Ireland- Switzerland- Italy- Panama- Columbia- Peru- Argentina- Brazil- Philippines- Florida- Arizona- California- Maine- New York City- England.
