07/09/16 - On 7/3, We went to church at Marantha and saw alot of relatives there.  We came home to rest since we were invited to a big barbecue that involved Uncle Lee's family.   I did know some of the family.  We had a nice time and the food was great.  The owner of the property had a nice pond and then got some beautiful fireworks in Indiana so we waited until dark and had quite the private show.

7/4 - We stayed around the RV and had an invitation to see fireworks in Plain City but they were not scheduled until 10:00pm so we decided to just stay home.

7/5 - We stayed around the RV and started to put things away since we were scheduled at a repair shop at 10:15am on 7/6.

7/6 - Went to the repair shop and was told it would take at least parts of two days and Aunt Ada and I then had packed overnight clothes and stayed with Uncle Allen and Connie.  We played some games, Aunt Ada decided to go to the basement and do some quilting.

7/7 - We joined 4 couples and Aunt Ada and I for lunch at the Golden Coral and then learned the RV was ready so Connie took us to the repair shop and then back to the campground.  I do like the new TV but is definitely something I need to get use to as to how it sits in the cabinet.  I do not have surround sound yet so am not sure how to get that taken care of.  Got all hooked up again and now it feels like home.

7/8 -  Took Aunt Ada to Aunt Martha's house and they went out for lunch and then Aunt Ada had her hair done.  I went to Aunt Lovina's house for taco salad that was prepared by Cousin Alice.  We had a nice visit, then Alice took me back to the end of the farm where her husband was combining wheat. It was interesting.  In the process, her husband called and asked if she could help and of course that was fine with me.  I then went to see another cousin Alma while I was waiting for Aunt Ada to finish. Then off to Aunt Martha's house to pick up Aunt Ada and back to the RV.

Today, I met cousins from Indiana (Sue, Jonas, Betty and Mary) for lunch and then Sue and I drove around the Plain City area to visit childhood places and renew memories.  We had to stop off at the dairy queen since it was one of our favorite places!  I had a great day and then left for Indiana around 5:00pm.
