Rain, a Crab, and a Dead Dog



Thurs.
June 26 - Had some good rain. Was cloudy and a little cooler so didn't go to the beach until about 3. Picked up Vince at 4:30. Vince had heard there could be a demonstration tomorrow, possibly because Lord Carradon [Hugh Mackintosh Foot, Baron Caradon Of St. Cleer, British Ambassador to the UN (1964-1970)] might be in to install Mr. [John] Cumber as Commissioner.

Fri.
June 27 - A quiet day! Took the kids swimming this a.m. They didn't swim much – a crab in the water scared them. We asked a man passing by what it was. He brought it out of the water and killed it. Told us it would make us sick if it bit us.

So we started looking for shells – then saw a dead dog floating. That was enough. The kids were ready to call it quits!

Picked up Vince at 4:00. Showered, shampooed, packed.
