Saturday 1994 - [to Kentucky] We drove to Williamsburg, had lunch at the Dinner Bell in Berea. In the evening we ate at Cracker Barrel in Corbin.
Sunday 1995 - Don [?] Johnson's 42nd birthday, also Donna Smallridge. Ed spoke on Phillipines 3:4-14, "Been there, no thanks."

Had [historical] picture in our SS class of our church which showed two little chimneys on side next to street, also gas lights and things on each of the four corners of the steeple base. We ate at the Wooden Spoon, $6.95. At Revco 2 pair of shoestrings for 99¢, at Kroger's 3 pairs for 77¢.
Tuesday 1996 - Jean had eye appointment with Dr. H in Wilmington. I went on to Dayton for Wilson appointment and Campbell appointment. Then met Dick S. at Bob Evans for a cup of coffee [don't think Dad would have been drinking the coffee]. We had supper at Frisch's, then to UMC where Tom and Emily Salisbury spoke on their Wycliff [Bible translation] experience in Peru.
Wednesday 1997 - [Phoenix]
Friday 1999 - [Portugal to Spain] At Hotel Beatriz in Toledo, at edge of town so could park on the grounds. Took cab to tour square, very compact.
