Pair of traveling guitar pickers
 
Kitty Morrison and Sue Schrader, the Ahouse guitar-pickers
Sue Ahouse Schrader, Class of 1971, sure doesn’t stay in one place very long. Neither does her sister, Mary “Kitty” Ahouse Morrison, Class of 1968.
So I wasn’t surprised to see them together in Nashville at the Ryman Auditorium, birthplace of the Grand Ole Opry. Strumming left-handed on their guitors.
Sue drove with husband Larry from their Piscataway, New Jersey home to their Stoney Lonesome residence in Monongah (first right turn going south on U.S. 19 after you pass the Union Hall). And then met up with Kitty, who lives on McCue Avenue in Monongah.

And off they went . . . again!!! If Sue and Kitty had gone to Tennessee sooner, they might have come across Joyce Cowart Davis Peck, Class of 1966, who was at the National Quartet Competition (barbershop for women) in Pigeon Forge. Joyce and her 3 singing friends are on their way back to home.

For Joyce, Class of 1966, that would be Palm Bay, Florida.

Sue’s not all about country. She also has been seen traipsing around the art centers of Sedona, Arizona and cruising on the Delaware River near Philadelphia, where her son, Chris Schrader, lives. Kitty has had her share of traveling around America and elsewhere, too.

 Sue retired in Dec. 31, 2014 after 32 years as a coding engineer at Telcordia Technologies.

Their brother is Mike Ahouse, who needs a GPS chip on those two to track where they are.
Happy trails, Sue and Kitty. Not that Monongah’s Traveling Ahouse Sisters need any encouragement to go on the road again, as Willie Nelson sings.
