June 12, 1980 Aunt Estelle wrote

Thursday 1980  Fair cool to hot.  We have Wendi.  We went to Norton this eve.  ate at Burger Queen at Big Stone.  Come back down the back valley and ran in a yard sale.  After supper we went down to Uncle Ray Bakers and stopped at Zora Parsons. 


Footnote:  Wendi is her granddaughter.  Norton is a nice town about 12 miles away, on top of a mountain.  Burger Queen was a very popular place to eat in Big Stone Gap.  It is not there now.  There are two ways to get to Norton and I think that is what she means by coming back down the back valley.    Ray Baker is the half-brother of her mother and he is a brother of Millard Baker.   Zora Parsons is her friend I think for many years. 

My note:  feeling good today, been sewing.  Leslie went for her first day of work.  Leah is showing houses so it is just me and Max here.  It is very hot outside so Leah didn't want me to go out.
