Sunday, August 5, 1973 A Beautiful day

It dawned nice and sunny and cool. We got breakfast and done up the work. Went to town. About 12, Esther, Walt, Cliff, Betty and all the children came and we went to Naples. We took a ride up the lake on the Songo River Queen. It was a beautiful day and a very pretty ride. On our way home we called at Jack and Sylvia’s. Didn’t see Jack though. Came home and got ready and went down to Betty’s for a barbecue chicken cookout. It was given by Esther and Betty, Fern brought the watermelon. Betty and George had a good time. Also all the family played badminton etc. Yates, Demings, Crooks, Crooks, Thomases, Hortons and Bill Walker were the guests.

It was a good day. We got our work done up and got ready and went to Dorothea and Dave’s. From there we left and went in Bill’s car to Andover Mass. to call on their cousin Hector Keith. But he wasn’t at home. We called to see Agnes Berdette. We had a good time and Dave is such a good driver.
