We had snow on Thursday night and school was delayed two hours so Jeff's family bagged school since they were going to be leaving early anyway. So we left for Erie about the same time and met just north of Harrisburg for lunch. We caravanned from there to Bob's house. I-80 was closed just West

Nana will hit a magic age on the 15th so we filed for SS this morning on the internet. Something didn't match so we were notified to bring or mail her birth certificate to the office. It was close so we took it down. We had put her mother's maiden name on the application but they had her stepm
