The machinery woke me early this morning. They were paving the road behind me and my window was open. By lunch time – when I got home from work – they were in front of my house. Made the house vibrate! My road – Wren Drive – is totally paved and rolled smooth. Impressive to watch them work, but I wouldn’t want that job!

I did laundry, ironing, sorting and packing. So I think I’m pretty organized. That’s a good thing because this week is stacked full of obligations! Nothing hard – just steady, busy. Kathy stopped on her way from 317 Overview to 10 Seneca and we went over last minute notes for vacation. In between now and Sunday we have to finish packing and moving Kathy/Paul, get things organized enough for Paul to manage while we’re gone. I need to finish up my last minute chores and am schedule at Frontier Court Days all day Saturday. Plus get the grass cut before I leave. And I still work two more days this week. A healthy, busy schedule.

May be an image of 8 people, people standing, outdoors and text that says 'FRONTIER COURT DAYS Saturday June 18 9:00am 5:00pm Sunday June 19 9:00am 3:00pm BE A WITNESS TO HISTORY! Join us for reenactments of court cases heard at Hanna's Town from 1773-1786 along with living history demonstrations, encampment, celtic music, activities for children, and more! 18th century worship service on Sunday HISTORIC HANNA'S TOWN WESTMORELAND HISTORICAL SOCIETY 809 Forbes Trail Road, Greensburg, PA 15601 WESTMORELANDHISTORY.ORG 724-836-1800'
I’ll be there Saturday. Come on out!

Over the weekend when we were moving items, it came up that Kath did not want the butter churn that was at Mom’s. No one else seemed to be interested so of course I brought it home. I’ve moved it to 3 different places; not sure I’m done moving it yet!

The wooden blocks are from Mom’s, too.

After Kathy left I snapped a few pictures of new blooms in the garden. Next will be supper. I have to work tomorrow and check on the car. Not sure what they want me to take.

June 13 – If you were ever in a parade, tell about it. “When we had the horse & buggy we drove in a parade down main street. Dusty, the horse, got upset when the band got too loud in front of us. Your Dad jumped out & grabbed the halter & I pulled back on the lines so hard my hands had blisters. We turned off at the first side street. Very frightening experience.” Dad’s horses did not like parades. They had a few scary experiences.

Yesterday’s vacation destination was Napa Valley CA (I was there once!) and the picture posted was St. Helena. Other points in Napa are:

Napa Valley Wine Train
Napa Art Walk
Castella di Amoroso
Bale Gristmill Historic Park
Skyline Park
Hess Collection Winery and Art Museum

TOMORROW June 14 is:

Yes! It’s Flag day! Our great Aunt Amy’s birthday was on Flag Day. Mom told us that every year. I remember Aunt Amy very clearly. There are other things tomorrow, but I can be pretty sure I won’t be involved with a forklift! Have a wonderful day. God bless…
