Another bright but hot day. Up as usual ’bout 8 A.M. & then later a ride. After lunch back to our pruning. A note from Kathy. She’s leaving with Ken D.—back to Wash. Shelley starts high school Mon. Cleaned up, dinner—a list of T.V. & reading—then to bed. T.V. news taken up with tragic Delta plane crash in Dallas. Then politics & press trying to portray Geo.
