Sunday, July 29, 1973 Dorothea 36

Today dawned a most beautiful sunny day. We got up about seven, had breakfast. Dorothea and Dave came for a little while. They were on their way to go up to North Stoneham on a picnic for the day with the Hortons and the Ed Babbitts. They had a very good time and the kids enjoyed it very much. We, Bill, George, Betty and I went down to Jack and Sylvia’s. We enjoyed a nice visit with them and looked at some old pictures of Jean’s. Came home, had a cookout steak supper.

Back to Nanny's for a cookout

Monday, July 30, 1973 HOT AND SUNNY

Up, got the work done early. I did my wash. Betty came and we went to Portland, Zayre’s and the Maine Mall. It looked very pretty. George and Betty enjoyed it very much. Betty treated us to dinner at the Deering Ice Cream Shop. Very good dinner. Came home and George’s slides had come back. Then after supper we went to town and came home and went down to Betty’s and helped she and Walt move hen  coops. Then they came up here and we saw the slides. Carmen and Kim had a good time, they went down to Dawn’s and Sebago Lake swimming. We picked them up when we came home. Zak was with Walt while we were at the Mall. At Walt’s office etc.

Judd wouldn't let us leave Dawn's
