Sunday 1981 Foggy partly cloudy most of day.
Janice & Wendi were home. Va. Shuler come visiting. We went to the funeral home late where Mrs. Wainscott and Arthur Burchetti lay corpse. Jennings got back and come in a while.
Footnote: Janice is her daughter and Wendi is her granddaughter. Virginia Shuler is her cousin, friend and neighbor. She never drove a car so I don't know how she come visiting. Her husband, Harold Shuler would have brought her probably. As I said, I don't know who Wainscott and Burchetti were. Jennings is her brother who lives nearby.
My note: I am back home, about 9 PM Sunday night. It was the hottest weekend we have had in years, I think. I was at the show site by 6AM, Saturday and I was wet with sweat by 6:30AM. The humidity was awful and never let up. It rained and stormed really bad Saturday night. I had covered up everything and tied the tent down good so I didn't have any damage. Some other people had water damage. Sunday was even hotter than it was Sat. I kept a wet linen napkin around my neck and that helped to keep me somewhat cool. It was a long two days and the sales were not the best I have had. I might do the show again next year as the people were nice and I love the town. The architecture was just amazing everywhere. This is the town that Cummins Engine plant is in and the town was built by the Miller family. Miller was an engineer and he founded the Cummins Engine company. We were right in the middle of downtown on the street - so the pavement was hot - but the buildings were just awesome. I had a lady in the booth who was buying a doll and I asked if she lived there. She does and is in fact a tour guide and conducts walking tours of the downtown buildings,. She said there were famous architects who designed the buildings but Frank Lloyd Wright was not one of them. Some famous guy from New Mexico did some of the designing. If you are interested, she said to check out the website and it will give you all the info. I will do that. Anyway, I survived.
