Pizza and Friends

We had another very busy week of medical and dental appointments and getting together with friends. Nanc had a crown put on the tooth she had a root canal on a couple weeks ago. We both had appointments for medical tests and fortunately they were at the same place the same morning. We had our annual review with our financial planner, my brother Rick, and are happy to report the news was very good. The week ended with a family wedding which will be the next blog entry.

We got together with Donna and Ed who I taught with (middle couple) and Georgie and Tom, right. They came down our way and we had dinner at the River House in Charleroi, another locally owned restaurant that we can recommend. 

How about this unique RV that was in the park. Very neat looking conversion rig.

Anyone who reads the blog knows one of our favorite things about being in WashPA is going to John's for his wonderful homemade wood fired pizza. Here is John, right, with Chuck who appears to be getting some cooking pointers.

Tom, Jim, Charlie and Ron swapping lies and waiting for pizza.

Reg and Pat brought some great Philly style pretzels.

Becky, Tish and Pat enjoying the food.

Gail and Mischa checking out the wings that John cooked in the oven before doing a few pizzas.

All these people and no one wanted to sit with Joy:)

Sandy, Nanc, Linda and Phil sharing some tales and enjoying the food.

Kim and Bill waiting for John to serve up some pizza.

Not only is John a great cook he also is a great baker. He made a couple fruit pies and this to die for cheesecake.

It is so great to see all these friends and having John's pizza is always a high point of our stay in WashPA. As always, THANKS JOHN!!! 

On Sunday we checked out a new spot in WashPA, The Presidents Pub, where we had brunch and enjoyed the music of Johnny Smooth. There is now weekly music sponsored by the Washington Jazz Society so we have another stop for great local music. 

Another day, another get together with an old friend, Nancy, who I worked with at my first teaching job in 1975 at Atlasburg Elementary. The next year I got a job in Washington and became friends with Tom who I later learned had been friends with Nancy for many years. We have gotten together a few times over the years, but had not seen her since we went on the road.

Our stay here is at the half way mark and the weather has become very fall like much earlier than normal. The temps have been well below normal and a few trees have even started to turn. We have a few more appointments this month before starting south for warmer weather in October.
