mistypo on
COLD........BUT---the truth (somewhat jaded) is that , along with poorer
eyesight,my finger dexterity cannot be compared with normal days as I had just
returned from my mile walk in freezing temperature, wearing three pr of
tights/stockings'type thingys, and two sweatshirts, gloves, earwarmers, and a
jacket....YES- that part is true............and I don't like it one bit!!! You think
32
degrees sounds warm?? well, not so, in moist FLORIDA........I swear I get
colder here than I ever did in Morrisville (or Elmira) NY in subzero weather!!
So enjoy that blanket (of snow)..........'cause "five 'll get you ten"
(quote
from Pete Rose?) that your insulated homes are far warmer than these above
ground built on cold slab dwellings here!
Wishing AHL uf EWE a HAB=BEE GNU EAR! (Doesn't that have a MUSICAL RING TO
IT?!)
Cuz Marylyn
(Let me know if any of you hear from Cuz Gene Sprague----hope he is safely en
route to the
Sunny---but--not----yet---warm---SOUTH!
You may now SPELLCHECK THIS but please don't report back!!!
Yes-Bill...I am related to OLD KING COLE on my DEWEY side!
Marylyn D. Adams
It didn't occur to me that COLE might be a typo. Marylyn researches
many ancestral surnames, so I just assumed COLE was another line she was
researching. I liked the idea of a music teacher being a descendant of
Old King Cole, but don't know if she has "fiddlers three" in her classes.
And no, I haven't heard from Gene Sprague lately but wish him a safe
trip. (For those of you who missed our 2001 Campbell Reunion -- Gene
played trumpet and Marylyn keyboard for our entertainment. Thanks again
both of you. Gene also gave a brief talk at that reunion about playing
in musical groups with our late cousin, Phil Young. Prof. Young was a
pianist and eminent Hemingway scholar.)
Lastly, for those interested, I have the following COLEs in my database:
Alene, Beryl L., 2 Elizabeths, Geo. I., Katie L., Lettie M., Myrtle
Sephonia, Oscar E., Patricia, Rebecca, 2 Sarahs, and Walter G.
