September 23, 1963
Monday, sunny, cool leaves are beautiful. David started work with Clifton at Jefferson. Madelyn went to Lavilla's with me.
Comment: Madelyn is Madelyn Blakesley, Lavilla is Lavilla Kingsley, both very active in the Flat Creek Baptist Church. David quit Timberland and is now working on the same job as Dad, probably a laborer. Dad was in the Operating Engineers at the time with quite a lot of seniority and he knew a lot of folks so that might have helped. Sounds like a gorgeous fall day....here is a view of autumn view of Hunter Mountain probably down a ski run..... no matter where I look, the Catskill Mountains always seem familiar and the views of the mountains played a significant role in our lives on the Hill. We always seemed to be looking to the mountains for signs of weather, for directional information, for smoke from fires and houses, the lights from houses at night and for lightning strikes during the thunder storms....
