October 2 - 5, 1962 ADAIRS Are Back in USA

Tuesday, October 2, 1962

A perfect day. ADAIRS LEFT ENGLAND FOR U.S. Dennis, Dorothea and Jeffrey left England today for home. Expect to hear from them tomorrow. Blanche and I went to the Fryeburg Fair. Mama went over to Aunt Ava’s for the day so that left Betty here alone all day, which she enjoyed. Mrs. Harry Hansen called to see me today about working for her.

Wednesday, October 3, 1962 GOT A TELEPHONE CALL FROM DOROTHEA!!

Dorothea called tonight and I wasn’t home. She was so disappointed about it. I was too. They arrived in this country about 530 this morning. Dennis and Jeff were in bed and all tired out. They had to land at Idlewind Airport in New York. Took a bus to McGuire Air Force Base. They are staying in a hotel there tonight. I will be so glad when they get home. Another nice day. Went to town with Fern and Lloyd. Betty bought me a new dress, curtains etc. etc. I paid the group insurance today.

Arthur Ward and kids called. Arthur milked our cow for Billie and had the milk. Betty bought a crib from Thurlow’s Furniture Store.

Today is the first wedding anniversary of Bet and Mike. One year ago tonight at this moment I’m now writing this Betty and Mike were married. A rainy miserable day. I worked at Hansens all day babysitting. Bill and I to town shopping, gone about half hour.
