1988 Family Letter -Dec.18

December 18, 1988

Dear Family:

We have had a quiet day at home today putting up the final Christmas things and "completing" the card letters.

Yesterday was one of six Saturdays that your Mother meets with the Emmaus group in preparation for their "journey" the last weekend in January.  We drove down to Lebanon to Golden Lamb (what a crowd) tho the tow of us got seated fairly quickly.  Walked around the downtown plus a brief visit to the Goodwill Store, where we bought a few books and also a stop at the library.  By the time we got home it was supper time and then went to the Hillsboro Square Dance.

Last Thursday night was our own square dance pot luck dinner and dance which ended on a sour note as two people could not find their own purse, tho it had a happy ending for it turned out that two other people had taken them with so many bags of food, dishes, etc. etc.  Only two more weeks and our term of office will be over.

Daye's Hardware Store building is now a furniture auction site.  The new Walmart store in Wilmington is to open the last of January.  It is reported that there is also to be a drive thru Yogurt Shop in this new mall.  We are so amazed that Cluxton's are still open in New Vienna.

We have gotten more good out of our Wells Fax line than we anticipated . . . our number is 513-987-2619.  One of our customers "demanded" that we get one.  The sending and/or receiving of an order, etc. is about as simple as making a copy on the copying machine.  Also buying a machine that will put an inner seal on our soap bubble bottles and the best price we have had on the caps is from a concern in Phoenix AZ. 

[Love, etc.]
