Weather: Weather http://www.weather.com/is again bright and sunny/blue skied. It is the warmest that it has been yet. I came back from my walking today and looked up at the temperature flashing on a sign that was by the road and it said 86 degrees. Whew! No wonder I was dripping wet today.
Where I walked today: Crossed the state line today. Pennsylvania to Ohio. Hmm or was that yesterday? The days run together sometime.
The ”Safe house” where I stayed: George Barnum’s house in Austinburg OH now Andi is here with me as well.
Who walked with me: By myself today.
One thing I really want you to know:
Did I mention that I lost my phone? My driver Glenda helped me get new cell phone at Radio Shack. Slow process clerk hung up on adding minutes on line. I am so tired, so is she. Now Glenda has to drive all the way back to Toledo http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toledo,_Ohio when she drops me off at George Barnum's house in Austinburg.
This very old brick (Perhaps 1800's) house is filled with period furniture http://ararefindllc.com/18th19th_century_period_furniture and old photos in a worn black paper album where you insert the corners of the photos into black triangle stick on, much like the one we had when I was a child. There are framed larger family and team or staff group pictures framed on the walls. George says that he has only owned it a couple years. He is working in Washington DC right now, but I can’t wait to hear his stories about the pictures in this house.
I found a book called BEING DEAD IS NO EXCUSE The Official Southern Ladies to hosting the Perfect Funeral, http://www.undergroundhumor.com/books/being_dead_is_no_excuse.htm not old or Victorian, but lots of fun. I am exhausted; I sit down without exploring to settle in and wrapped in a heavy flannel cotton sheet and beautiful quilt. I read and giggle myself into a sound sleep. I wake four hours later wondering and frozen. Now I search and find the thermostat and turn it up to 67. Brrr! Also figured out the radio and listened to NPR opera in background as I sorted my medicine pills into weekly container and checked maps and receipts. ALONE. I lived alone a long long time so this was relaxing (once I was warm and could munch on a chewy granola almond and cranberry bar.) http://www.videojug.com/webvideo/how-to-make-cranberry-almond-chewy-granola-bars
