Left for Pennsylvania. Howard, by chance, called Margot Krippendorf in Pittsburgh and they still live there. Pure luck Howard called! We drove to Pittsburgh and amazed as we drove through rolling countryside, through tunnel, and came out other side right into downtown. The town full of hills, trees, steel mills, rivers, bridges and seems to have a lot of charm on outskirts. Found their home and both so excited to see us. It’s been eleven years! They have two boys: Pierre, 9-1/2 and Charles, 5. Margot’s mother visiting from Germany.

All felt very relaxed and talked for hours. (Merdi) Margot’s Mom, made delicious supper. The boys played very well together.. all had baths. To bed in trailer and slept while Joe drove us around the town. Bed at 1:00 a.m. Warm and beat.
