December 5, 1980 Aunt Estelle wrote

Friday 1980    Fair, cold to warmer.  Jennings picked us up and we went to Penn. for Paul Kelly's funeral.  Then Millard & I went to Big Stone and got his driving license, I visited Malissa at the hospital.  We went to Janice's and then to appa for groceries. 


Footnote:  Jennings is her brother who lives nearby.  Pennington Gap, Va. is a town about 7 miles West of her home.  Paul Kelly was a neighbor.  Millard is her husband.  Malissa Reasor is an older relative who lives in the Big Stone Gap area.  Janice is her daughter who lives in Big Stone.  Appalachia is a town about 10 miles from her home.  Guess they were out of groceries in Big Stone that day. 


My note:  speaking of groceries - that is where I am headed.  The weatherman says it is going from 60 degrees to 17 degrees by Sat. and a large number of inches of snow.   I have a show on Sunday so I am a little worried about loading the car if there is so much snow.  I guess I could just go ahead and get some of the boxes in the car today.   So as I always say, the weather is brought to you by your local grocer.  People here rush to the store like they won't get to eat for weeks.   I just need a flashlight that works and some candles in case the electric goes out.    Hope all is well where you are.
