Erie-2, Ripley-1

April 29, 2021

Went to Ripley and drove around town then back to the Niebauer house. Back to Erie on route 5 to drive through neighborhoods as we are considering Erie for summer rentals as well as re-retirement after the Florida experience has run its course. We then drove around Erie and did some shopping including meat shopping at Urbaniak's. Had a good conversation with Andy Urbaniak who remembered us from the time we were campground hosts at Lampe and were regular visitors. The meat is in Bob's freezer which we will pick up on Saturday morning as we leave town. We visited with Tim and Cheryl Maloney at their new condo at Whispering Woods. They served us dinner to include Smith's hot dogs, an Erie favorite. We had a great visit and it was good to see them after they moved back to Erie from the Villages last year.
