Key Facts
President Reagan delivers his 331st and last weekly radio address, telling listeners, "Believe me, Saturdays will never seem the same. I'll miss you."
President and Mrs. Reagan depart for Camp David.
I slipped out of bed early & left Nancy sleeping—she’s worn out between the flu & her packing. Brkfst. in the study—timed my radio broadcast and did some desk work. Then over to Oval O.—did broadcast—back to the W.H. & a couple of photos in dip. room with family & friends of staff. Upstairs Nancy & Ted G. were packing odds & ends—I joined in some odds & ends of my own. P.D.B. arrived late but after lunch I got it read. Back to packing until our 3 P.M. departure for Camp D. More photos on departure. A different kind of chopper—not very comfortable. It’s something new they wanted us to see. It was 21° at Camp D. & then it started to rain. Usual routine—showered, washed my hair & then dinner & movie—“Cattle Queen of Montana.” And to bed.
