Dad's Diary 1989-1999 [lightly edited]
Thursday 1989 - Had hearing aid test in Wilmington, both OK. We both have had our eyes checked and Jean got new glasses. Exam was $30 and the glasses $170. Met Jean Liggett at the WPL and we ended up going to the Chinese place for supper with them. Got new bike gloves for $24.95. Got BIG check on sale of RJR stock. Put it in 3 month CD at 9.2%, 6 months was 9.4%. [Those numbers sound great compared to today's paltry CD rates. Our credit union best rate on 6 month CD's is currently 0.35%.]
Friday 1990 - [Georgia to Florida] Called Helen Kuntzman, then church was having a Missionary Night and potluck supper of foods from countries where the missions go. Enrights were among guest speakers, a nice treat. Aldersgate UMC in Seminole Florida.
Saturday 1991 - [Texas] Drove to South Padre Island, lots of traffic on the beach. Had lunch at Sea Ranch Restaurant, $3.99 special. Sat with Carol and Don Stout from Worthington.

Thursday 1995 - Went square dancing. Ed and Dorothy Bailey there. Leadership Clinton meeting. Joni [?] Streber [Stuber?] quitting Ferns and staring work with Morris B.... in Yellow Springs

Monday 1998 - [Kentucky to North Carolina] Left Somerset after taking Ginny to school and Christian to babysitter. Had lunch at Regas Restaurant in Knoxville. Still good. On to Asheville where we had a reservation at Grove Park Inn. Room 6035, (200 steps from lobby) past the room where George Bush spent a night. Serena had made reservations for dinner at Richmond Hill, 3 of us was $115, then Jean was sick. Called the Zooks -- Mary's younger sister in Missouri had passed away so they were going there.

Yes, it's Streber, as in Streber's Market in New Vienna. Same family.
