Have so much to write about, won’t know where to
begin...The weather seems to be on a happy note these
days and I'm hoping it sings happy tunes until Spring. If
the Hawaiians can Christmas shop in 70 and 80 degree
weather, so can I. Writing out your Christmas cards by
the pool...I love it.
Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving. We traveled
family. (That’s my side of the mad duo.) It was one dizzy
Wednesday we planned to leave Dallas around noon-
time, but on Tuesday calls from New York came in-
forming us of repairs on the Brooklyn Bridge, Route 80,
the Battery Tunnel and other roads leading into Fun City.
Pleading sanity, we took off about 10 a.m. giving us
clear sailing and some time to sightsee. It took us 2%
another two hours to drive around four blocks to find a
parking lot by the World Trade Center.
After driving under and up the Twin Towers and
around those blocks for two hours, I already had enough
of New York and the traffic jams. But you had to be in the
car to appreicate the acid indigestion...Louis wasn’t
interested in sight-seeing or anything else for that
matter, Adele wanted to get to Grandma’s house, only
Vin and George were looking forward to stand on line and
see New York.
ME - I was ready to bite anyone in the neck. Between
the traffic, the occupants of the car and the price to park
Could you believe $3,77 for a half hour to park your car.
It would take you a half hour just to cross the street in
New York. Madness.
If I though New York City was wild with traffic,
Thanksgiving Day was a joke. What usually takes a
quarter of hour from my parents home to my brother
Jim's in Lynbrook, took us 2%; hours. Bumper-to-bumper
all the way but it was worth it.
After everyone ate the 94 course dinner, the talent
events began. First the nieces gave professional ballet
and gymastic performances. Then my husband Vin and
brothers Jim and Tony did their bit with ballet and
gymastics. Everyone in the Back Mountain knows Uncle
Tony - could you imagine a ‘“‘tu’tu’’ on him. We laughed
so much we were getting sick.
“Such fun and great memories and the best part--as we
grow older we get crazier.
On Friday we all went over to Vin’s mom’s house for
British club to meet

something they have
another family get together. They're another crazy
bunch full of life and spirit. Thank goodness we live out
here in Pennsylvania, otherwise I'd kill myself with food
and laughter.
I know there are many people in Dallas who were very
thankful this past season...Mary Beth Schall and her two
young daughters escaped with their lives from a bad
accident involving their car and another on Wyoming
Ave. last week. Happy to report that everyone is home
recuperating and good wishes for a speedy recovery tp a
beautiful family.
Back to this column...Happy birthday to Susie Slocum
who will celebrate a birthday, Nov. 28.
Wedding anniversary wishes to Gene and Eleanor
Menges, their 32, Nov. 29, John and Ann Chesnovitch,
Nov. 28, Walter and Mary Weir, Nov. 28, Joe and Hetty
McGraw their 23rd anniversary and Skip and Pat
Bonham. Congratulations.
Aunt Catherine and Uncle Tony, Bayonne, New Jersey
enjoyed their turkey with the Annettas. Hurray for Aunt
Catherine! !
The best to Gate of Heaven cheerleaders for placing
first place in Bishop O’Reilly’s Annual Cheerleading
Competition. Eighteen teams competed in the three day
contest. Gate of Heaven girls received 143 points out of
160. Our congratulations to a sparkling, enthusiastic and
well-mannered squad.
Remember last week I said I'd fill you in on the trip to
the Scotch and Sirloin Restaurant...well here goes. Last
Saturday evening a group of us zanies from the Back Mt.
traveled to the Abingtons for a business meeting and
right then and there I should have known something was
in the air. Vin made it from Oak Hill to Abington High
School in a half hour. No wrong turn, no wrong hill. No
nothing until we departed for the Scotch and Sirloin
Restaurant, which is 10 minutes from the Abingtons.
Two car-loads, containing Frank and Arlene
Terascavage and Jack and Marlene Cacozza, Roy and
Carol Smith, ann Pickering, Emily and yours truly and
what’s his name.
What's his name said, “Follow me, I know exactly
where it is.”” He knew exactly where it was, but he could
not get there. First we drove to the Moosic exit of Route
81. (Don’t ask how from Route 6 we landed on 81 and
please don’t ask why we landed in Moosic twice.) One
time we drove down a dead-end street with the
Terascavage’s car right behind us and there was no room
to make a U-turn or back out. And Vin kept saying he was
giving us the 20-cent tour of Wilkes-Barre and points
north.
