Parties and Gifts

Thurs.
Aug. 7 – Vince took the car today. So the kids entertained themselves around the hotel. Vince & Pat got home about 2:30 – we went to Mead's Bay to watch the boat races, which we don't understand. After a later supper Vince and I went to Vanier's – Dr. & Mrs. Fenwick were as well as 3 English fellows & a worker from the bank. Made it home without running out of gas but we're getting low.

Got an invitation to a party on board the frigate Mohawk on Sat. nite.

Fri.
Aug. 8 – Took Vince to work. Ran out of gas in George Hill. Vince, Pat, Dawn & Mark caught a ride in. Clu [?] came out on a scooter with enough gas to get to Valley. Cashed some Traveler's checks, filled the tank, & came home.

Dawn stayed to help at the Clinic. Took the kids to Sandy Ground. Went back to Clinic - took Vince to airport – He flew to St. Maarten, bought a watch and earrings & flew back.

Walton stopped by & visited in the evening.

Vince said when Lorna opened her gift – she gave him a kiss on the cheek – all thrilled.
