A little muggy again but not really bad. Before the ride called Marty Anderson about his book “Revolution” which is about me largely but as Gov. & now President. It’s no kiss & tell. It’s a factual account of what we’ve done. Then a call from Ken D. about what we do in the remaining 6 months. He & about 14 or 15 of our gang had a lengthy meeting. I’m waiting for their report but from what he said I believe I’ll agree with what they talked about. Then the ride—started early because we’re going exploring. We rode down to the old Eckert ranch & through that property down to the spring fed lake we’ve known about but never seen. Round trip was about an hour & 40 minutes. I had to get back for lunch with Ken Khachigian who is working on my speech for the convention. It was a working lunch & progress was made.

Then I caught up with Barney & Dennis & we went at the Oak trees again. Late in day after shower & clean clothes Ron & Doria arrived for dinner. A pleasant evening.
