Arrived in Erie last night around 4 and settled into the Red Roof Inn on I-90 and Rte. 97 by the casino. Today we did some shopping, got black raspberry cones at Whippy Dip and took a little hike in the Erie Cemetery. Laura was visiting her sister, Mary, in Ripley so Alesa dropped me off at Bob's and went to see her. They had also set up a kind of mini high school reunion at Meeder's.. Today is Caity's birthday so Bob and Cathy had Caity & Tim, Becca & Jason and Imogen for a birthday party so I had a good time with the family.
