Day 5



Day5—Rode around Pburg. Looked for places Fred use to live and the old Rig and Reel. Had a picnic in city park and went to the cemetary , saw the hill Tom Hathaway and Fred use to sled down. Then off to Fenton Glass Factory. Fred use sell newspapers to them to raise money for the boy scouts.






Found the Mr. Bee Potato chip warehouse.
No tours but did buy 3lb. box for $7.00.

Drove back to Marrietta, Ohio looking for a WI-FI. Saw an amazing church steeple so stopped to take a picture. As I got out of the truck, I saw a sweet elderly lady trying to carry groceries. They were way to heavy for her, so I asked if I could help and she accepted. I carried them to her porch and we started talking. I told her we were visiting from Duluth, ga, and stopped to take a picture of the church. Much to my surprise, she knew where Duluth was as a family member went there for a wedding and her niece was a lawyer with an office in Buford. She told us that her church was the oldest west of the Ohio river and we should take a picture. As we started to leave her porch, she invited us to visit the church on Sunday so we could see the inside. We decided to do just that.

Back to the trailer and change for the bar-b-que.Bar –B-Q was fun. Everyone was looking at name tags to try and jog their memories. Fred met some old girlfriends and a few buddies from school. Food was good and music from their high school days..
