Sept. 6, 1979, Thursday Aunt Estelle wrote

Clear, cloudy.   I went for Wendi at 11 o'clock and we went to Abingdon to see Wendi's Dr.   Janice shopped some and we were dark getting home.



Footnote:   Wendi is her granddaughter who lives in Big Stone Gap with Janice, her mother.  Janice is Estelle's daughter.  Abingdon, Va.  is a good size town about 60-70 miles Southeast of Big Stone Gap.   Must have been some special Dr. there.   Janice has always worked in the medical field so I guess she knew where the good Drs. were.     The Barter Theatre is in Abingdon as well as the famous Martha Washington Inn.   I don't know much about the Barter other than it is sooo old that people would bring home grown food to "barter"  for a seat to a show.    They have a big art/craft show there in Aug. every year called the Virginia Highlands Festival.   I was in the show a couple of times.
