Tuesday 1993 - Jean and I worked at the Leadership Clinton booth at the Corn Festival, not much activity. Had a walking tour from the WUMC.  The NVBSA were selling cinnamon rolls.


Saturday 1996 - [Columbus to home] Had buffet breakfast at the hotel [Holiday Inn], 20% off card.  Waitress was quite a talker, about buying these figure [?] pictures and then charging people admission and also hep on style of baskets, etc.  Went by barber college, but it was $5.  Made a stop at both outlet malls, I-71 is now open on both sides.  We worked at Corn Festival, cobbler was very popular.  At the Rubbermaid outlet got two blue kitchen waste baskets at $2.39 each.  Betty Stevenson called, she will take the District UMC job.  Jean is happy.


Sunday 1997 - Went to Murphin Ridge, new owners, Jerry and Sheri McKinny of Dayton.  The Crossens [former owners of Murphin Ridge] have an apartment across from the Mariemont Inn.  He gave us some extra muffins.  Gallon of milk 97¢ at K-Mart.


Monday 1998 - [Labor Day] John, Julie and Kate left about 11am after we had taken the few things out of the attic.  Seemed to be more ants or ? around the chimney which I sprayed.  Cleaned up the loose tile in the basement. Jean had Mothers Club meeting at Martha Ann Bernards.  Esther had the program and then she introduced her nephew, Tim, who also spoke on his mission trip to Russia.  Jean got home about 5:45.  Watched a show about Lewis and Clark on TV.

The party on 10/8/89, as I recall, was the reception in the cafeteria at Asbury Seminary, following my Master's recital. In 1992, I have no idea who the "neighbor" was that I invited over for Ginny's 10 week birthday. We lived in Williamsburg, KY at the time and the only neighbors we knew as I recall, were the Dunstons across the street.
