Got ready and left home at 7:15 PM to go to the airport to meet Betty and George. It has been a hazy day, but very hot and humid. Betty, Bill and I went, we picked up Dorothea, drove to the airport. It thundered and lightning and rained very hard. At 9:45 their plane came in. We was so glad to see them. They were tired. Dorothea came up to stay all night. We got home about 11:15 PM. Talked and had sandwiches etc. Had a good time. Dorothea down to Betty and Walt’s. Today Lawrence mowed Walt’s hay.

Up kind of early. It was cloudy and foggy. We had a late breakfast. I made bread and a chocolate layer cake. Washed. Got lunch and cooked a turkey. Betty and family, Dorothea and Dave came up. We all had a good time and enjoyed the meal etc. Dorothea enjoyed her visit down to Betty’s and very happy to be here with the family and to get a chance to visit George and Betty. Walt sick but better tonight. All went home late. We enjoyed the slides of Bill and my trip to Scotland.
