We have great news from Kistin and Todd Lewis. They are expecting twins, due this Thanksgiving! You can see the new addition to the family in the sonogram snap here. The "twinkies" are doing well and Kristin is ecstatic.
We are planning a Mother's Day picnic at Feather Beach tomorrow afternoon. We'll launch the boat and light the grill, play games with the kids. I'm looking forward to a great summer on the lake. We now have tiny beginner skis, junior skis, a junior wakeboard, a kneeboard, as well as the big orange tube ... something for everyone. I describe my role as "Grandpa Towboat".

You have surpasses the Kennison number of 7 -sibling- not grandkids. Mom and Dad only had 6 grandkids. Good luck keeping everything going and everyone happy. Congratulations to everyone.

 Carey called me and asked if I could find the listing of contacts for our family that he created years ago.  I did have a file copy and Carey and I updated it.  I have attached this here in Word and Pages that can be edited for new entries and updates.  There is also a PDF copy.  I added sections for Aunts & Uncles and Cousins.  These sections are missing people and dates, but perhaps I can work with Kristin to fill in some of this.

 When watching the evening news today, I saw an image of coal barges lined up at the docks at the USS Mon Valley Steel Plant.  Of course the news segment was about the White House blocking the sale of USS to Nippon Steel.  My mind wandered to to dad's career at the Robena Prep Plant.  I didn't think that it was still in operation but I searched for more information.  I found that the Robena deep mines closed in 1983, but plant continued to operate until 2017 processing coal from surface mining for Consol Mining.  It seems that reclamation of the site began many years before 2017, most likely mandated by local concerns about environmental damage from seepage from the three large slurry ponds and other surface contamination.  Dad took me out one Sunday afternoon to inspect the dikes and berms around the ponds.  We had to hop into one of the big company trucks to traverse the dirt roads around the site. I read a couple of articles about the ongoing l...
