Steeplechasin'

Nativity BVM RC Church in Media, PA. My Aunt, Uncle and cousins worshiped in this church.

Don and I walked to the WaWa to get some breakfast sandwiches and coffee. It is a block away. After eating, I walked Danny and asked my friend who lives across from Don if she could walk Danny Monday afternoon while we went to Nate's funeral. She was happy to do so.

Don and I went to the Holmes Presbyterian Church where I grew up. They had some flowers and goodies left over from their sale on Sat. so I bought a hanging Geranium for Jan and some cupcakes for her and her family. After lunch, I took them out to Jan's house. She wasn't home as she had some last minute preparations to do for the funeral. I was greeted by her daughter and son-in-law. Jeff hung the geranium on a post along the front walk. It looked nice there. I went in and stayed for awhile with Jan's children. Alan came and we walkd down to the club house at the lake. The luncheon was to be held there after Nate's service. Jan's sister, Donna and her husband, Tom, and daughter, Gianna were helping to set things up. Jan's brother, Scott and his wife, Dee were also helping to set things up. We talked about the fun times we had swimming in the lake and ice skating on it. They lived right beside it. The lake is no longer used for swimming. A pool was built in the back of the lake. I did see a young man fishing in the lake. The town is thinking about draining the lake and just letting it go back to being a stream because the dam is not safe and it will be expensive to rebuild it. I hope they keep the lake.

When I got back to Don's, I walked Danny and Don grilled some Salmon steaks for dinner. We alternated between watching the Phillies, the Flyers, and Sherlock on Masterpiece Mystery.
