Not a whole lot of "Irish" going on around here. We did try to wear some green but not going out or anything. Corby's is making Colcannon for dinner as I right.

I had my entire tennis group over for dinner. Since I was playing, I just did an Asian Beef Crock Pot dinner. Not very Irish. Everyone seemed to like it. It was just fun to be with everyone. Life is good.

No less than Colcannon! What a lucky man. (WTH) Kathleen Fitzpatrick Ragsdale Kennison forgot to celebrate - too busy at work due to spring break and the kids came in for surgery. I had an invitation to come out to the Button in Fort Worth to hear my friend Dan Tcheco and his jazz combo. I had to beg off due to work that was calling. I went out to hear Dan on Saturday night at the Yucatan Taco Diner. The place was backed up for two hours for a table but I found a seat at the bar for only the price of one or two Cervesas. I have donned my green sweater for this evening.

 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...
