Sat. 1980 Beautiful warm weather. I went to Joe Tankersley's to get me some deer meat early. Was up to Jennings, and down by Sandra a minute. Millard & I took down the road to Woodway, visited the Tom Ely's, come back by Uncle Ray Bakers and up by Mrs. White's.
Footnote: I don't know Joe Tankersley. I do remember the name but not the guy - he must have lived in the area and was a hunter. Jennings is her brother who lives nearby. Sandra is her niece who lives nearby. She is the daughter of Everette (Estelle's brother) and Ruth Reasor. Millard is her husband who makes the rounds with her sometimes and looks like today is the day. Woodway is a small community about 10 miles away. I think we all knew somebody who lived in Woodway. Tom Ely was Millard's brother - I think. I remember him being called "Uncle Tom". Uncle Ray Baker was Estelle's mother's (Lula Baker REasor) half-brother. Don't know Mrs. White - must have been a friend in the community.
My note: Well we got the ice sometime during the night and it is 30 degrees now. Supposed to start snowing anytime now and won't stop until we get 5" according to the weatherman. I am packing my dolls and things in the car this morning so I can get the car to the edge of the driveway. Show is Sunday and we have to set up at 7AM. What havoc the weather can create on our lives. We will get thru it and hopefully have a few less dolls and a little more money. Hope all is well with you.
