Walked to cabins to help Nancy with more picture hanging—an early lunch & back to Wash. A meeting regarding the speech—a few minor changes. Dinner here with Tip & Mrs. O’Neill—Ed, Jim B. & Susan & the Friedersdorf’s. Dinner caused a near panic for us—the O’Neills arrived and the hour for dinner drew near & there were still only 4 of us. The Bakers arrived—they had the time wrong. Ed it turns out was on a plane—he’d left word but we didn’t get it. Oh—I should have added—the Friedersdorfs (Max & Priscilla) were with the Bakers. It was a nice evening but maybe Tip & I told too many Irish stories.
