Dearest Lottie -
I'm writing this from the Philadelphia terminal . We expect to leave for Frankfurt this evening. We stopped along the way to see Barb & Carl (they are fine), Mike & Lisa & family, and the Bill Durands. Lisa & Mike's children are adorable. Morgan is as precosious as ever & Camden is a riot. The baby, Sydney, is still a "baby".
Bill & Maureen organ project is almost unbelievable. I don't know how they ever had the courage for such an undertaking. We had a nice visit and then dinner.
Drove by the house on Pierce St., saw Pop's grave (he did die in 1969) and visited the Jocelyn Art Museum.
We also stopped at the Danish Museum in Elk Horn. It is quite an enterprise. They are encouraging American Danes to submit copies of their geneology projects.
The folks at the Museum and the windmill knew Verda Johnson (nee Ohms). She lives in Elk Horn. I tried to call her but she was not home - did have a chat with her husband. We plan to be gone about 2 wks. Hope to get up to Aalborg and gather more data.
I'll call as soon as we get back to the States.
Very Much Love,
Bets
