Paul, Shirley, Arnold and Gail have returned from an "old car tour" to Stowe, Vt., and Lake Placid, N.Y. Fifty cars, ranging from 1911 to 1976, toured the valleys and climbed the mountains, 'including Smugglers Notch and a few brave (crazy) souls took their cars up White Face Mountain, the highest peak in New York. You can be sure Basters and Kerrys were up there in the clouds too. What a joy to drive through the countryside and small towns in open cars where we can be in touch once more' with the sounds and smells of the world, instead of driving in an air-conditioned car shut up tight with radios playing.

Everyone was glad to hear that youre O.K. Jim. Rebecca and Cassandra Aked are off this week to visit their grandparents in B. C. for some holidays.
