October 21, 1980 Aunt Estelle wrote

Tuesday 1980  Fair warmer.  After dinner I went to Pennington.  Stopped at Aunt Rosalee's, bank and visited at nursing home, to Cas Walker's, to the hospital, back by Dry Branch School where I left some of Aunt Rosalee's clothes, back to Aunt Rosalee's, Va Shuler's and by Betty's for milk.  Late I went up to Jennings.  


Footnote:   Well, I am tired just reading all the places she went today.  Dinner for her was what we call lunch.  Dinner was called supper.   So she did all this in an afternoon.  Aunt Rosalee is married to Uncle Millard Baker, her mother's half-brother.  Cas Walker's is a grocery store in Pennington Gap  where the hospital is.  Not sure where the nursing home was - either in Dryden which is a small town located on the road going toward Pennington Gap.  The bank was probably in Pennington Gap too.  Dry Branch is a village near Pennington.  Virginia Shuler is her cousin - the daughter of Rose Slemp who was a half-sister to her mother.  Betty Ramey is her neighbor and friend.    Jennings is her brother.
