Allentown is having an ice storm - Lulu refused to let the weather defeat her spirit.
Ruthann is Aunt Ethel's daughter. Every summer Nancy and Ruthann would spend a week in Wildwood NJ with Aunt Ethel and the rest of the family. The Royal Court Motel next door had a pool - but the kids were not allowed to go there. One day - 40 years ago - Nancy and Ruthann - crashed the pool in front of the whole family. Everyone was lined up on the balcony as the two brave souls showed their ever present defiant streak.
Last night at midnight - they defied the management at the Sheraton Allentown Airport - and swam in the 90 degree water when the pool was closed.
Aunt Ethel's viewing was last night. Today the funeral is at 10:30. Aunt Ethel would have been proud.

I was in Wildwood when the two daredevils did the crashing! If I recall it was the first of many times they visited The Royal Court as we had no pool!
What a send off for Ethel! I know she is looking down and having a good laugh with those two.
