Around About
Continued from page 4
unanticipated, spectacular surprise arranged my hosts,
second cousins who live at Bielefeld. These Kleinsorge kin
(my mother's family) were so cordial and so generous witn
their time, their homes and their delicious cooking. It was
hard to say goodbye to them as I boarded the 1 : 20 a.m. night
train via Hannover to Frankfurt to fly homeward.
Before we reached Sea-Tac the man who sat beside me
gathered statistics about our westward flight. He found that
we traveled in Pan-Am 's big 747 for 4220 miles. Our average
altitude was 35,000 feet, and we cruised at 550 miles per hour.
At takeoff from London the ship weighed 685,000 lbs; it
carried 40,000 gallons fo fuel which weighed 255,000 pounds.
We were in the air just a little over nine hours and ten
minutes. Our route was across northern Ireland, southern
Greenland, Canada's Baffin Island, Hudson Bay and central
and western provinces.
It will still be days, maybe weeks, before I work my way
back to "normal." I expect to write again about local
happenings after I become re-oriented.
You will no longer see me accompanied by my mut
Tippy. I have given dear Tip to my husband's grandneice
who has taken him to live with her on the Earl Weatherford
summer pasture above Kimberly in Grant County. Thus you
will be spared further puppy reports, although I may
occasionally mention my faithful cat Sam.
My typewriter awaits, and if you have local tidbits you
would like me to help you share with our readers, try to catch
me at my telephone.
P.S. If you like to pull weeds, do stop by my yard how
the weeds have flourished.
