Kendalyn on the first day of Fourth Grade!
And Kendalyn on the night before the first day of Fourth Grade.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Annual Get-together with Cathy's friends from NJ was held on August 29 at an interesting place in White Haven PA called the Powerhouse Eatery. The site was once and formerly the power generating plant for a Tuberculosis Sanatorium located in White Haven.
The origins of White Haven Center can be traced to August 1901 when a tuberculosis sanatorium was established on 215 acres of farmland in the Blue Mountains of Pennsylvania. Since tuberculosis is caused by various strains of microbacteria and most common among the urban poor, the best treatment was considered to be isolation of the patient at rural sanitaria. White Haven offered an ideal setting due to its clean air and rural surroundings.
The restaurant served very nice meals although the portion sizes may not have been a hit with all! Below is the group before lunch was served. From left and around are Cathy and Larry, Marilyn and Jack Chronister, Bettie LeFevbre, and Justine and Sandy Weinberg.

Kendalyn was able to spend a few weekends with us before she left for the summer at her father's home in Illinois. And she visited us again after she returned in August. Here she is at the pool at Thousand Trails.
Laura has been seeing a new friend, Rory Manwiller, on a regular basis and we all got together at Ruby Tuesday's for dinner and a chance to get to know one another better. The first picture was taken of all at the table by a waitress.
The picture below is a panorama of all taken on Randy's new iPhone5 but he couldn't get it all the way around to include himself!
Get a load of the size of that burger!!! She took half home by the way.
And finally, one last belly busting lunch at the Hershey Pantry in Hershey. Cathy's friend Bettie LeFevbre, in the light blue outfit, drove from NJ and stayed over night in a local motel. Next day we met Jack and Marilyn Chronister, who live somewhat nearby in Mechanicsburg PA, at the Pantry for lunch at 3:00. We finally cleared out of there at 6:00 after much conversation and too much lunch.
