December 21, 1980 Aunt Estelle wrote

Sunday 1980  Fair not quite so cold.    Janice was home.  We went up to Litton's fabric shop this evening.  Christmas program tonite. 


Footnote:   Janice is her daughter who lives about 9 miles away.  Litton's fabric store was in the Cadet section of Wise County, located between Big Stone  Gap and her house in Deep Springs.  The woman who owned the store was from Appalachia.  Her son Scotty Litton was a boyfriend of mine for a while when I was in high school.  Litton's daughter, Carolyn still lives in Big Stone and I think she owns a store - maybe the bridal shop - in Big Stone.  Carolyn married one of the Bloomer boys who was from Powell Valley and his family owned the roller skating rink that we all loved.  There was also a lake there where we went swimming sometimes.   I remember going to her fabric store. 


sorry I didn't get this posted yesterday.  I have a bad cold, slept late and had to meet a friend at noon to deliver a journal cover I made for her trip to Florida.  So when I got up I had to leave.
