Letter from Leslie in anticipation of getting together for Don's birthday:

Wow, I am excited!
I've included a map for a quick orientation re geography. [The color] coral is Hershey, where my family is staying; it's relatively distant from everyone else and probably pricey.
Purple is Morgantown, where the picnic will eb held on Saturday. It's close ot the PA turnpike and there might be easy lodging there.
Blue is Lancaster and there are endless possibilities. The red heart at the bottom is my dad.
Zero lodging near Oxford; it's a small town. Well, there is an historic inn on the town square, about a mile from dad, but I think it's costly.
If flying, BWI and Philly airport are about the same distance from Lancaster, and BWI tends to have less expensive flights. But BWI means having to travel north on 95 at the beginning of Labor Day. Could get ugly. Coming south on 95 from Philly is usually easier.
I'm realizing now how complicated this is. We'd understand if you change your mind. After months of planning this was the best we could do. The Merediths are staying in Hershey only because we were able to exchange into a condo there at low cost, and the plan was everyone else would stay in Lancaster. But my older brother's wife later insisted on renting the old farmhouse in Morgantown and logistics became messy.
Kenn's wife, Rehana, and I have tried to access your website recently but it appears private. Do we have the wrong url?
Our phone is 520.670.9097, and we're almost always home, but best to avoid midday.

 

Best, Lindsey
