A very nice day. Billie, Betty, Mike, Blanche and I took a trip up and through northern Maine. Also stopped at Andover to see the earth satellite. It is very interesting. We stopped at Rumford for a hamburger and hot dog lunch. Way up through the Height of the Land on up toward Rangeley and back through Wilson’s Mills, Errol, New Hampshire. Had a nice time. To town and down to Jean’s in evening.
