We dropped by the Solomon Wright library for the first time. Ron got his own card. I took out a book. Nice chat with the director and with a fellow member of the Milne book group.
We shopped at Big Y and on the way home, visited the three art galleries at the old Holiday Inn in North Adams.
Today we brought home jams and cheese from the Williamstown indoor Farmer’s Market at the elementary school.
I did some more genealogical research on Ron’s family and discovered that his mother had a sister, Edna Belle Todd, who died at 4 1/2. Her death certificate is heartbreaking: she lived for 9 hours following a head injury.
I also discovered that Ron is 1/8 Irish on his mother’s side. Her grandmother was born in Ireland, possibly in Cork. That makes him an octo-something.
It also explains a lot.
