I got up at four. It was cloudy but with breaking clouds. I took a bath, got ready. Betty came for me about five. We left about 25 after, got to Portland. Got my ticket. Waited for the plane, left at 7:15. Got to Boston at 10 to 8. And it had cleared off.  At 8:30 got on the plane. At 8:50 we started by four motor jet. It was very pretty all the way. One place was all above the clouds then they disappeared and it was so beautiful and could see everything over mountains and all. Es, Sue and Tom met me at airport. Was glad to see them all. Cliff is so thin. Billie D has the mumps. In evening went to the car races at night.
