Our week end visit with you j
and Ait, Jane, was just perfect.
Crthtat lure been better if it
led been made to order. Thank
iron for taking us to your love
ly Pan-O-Rama Club Saturday
night, and for gettisg up ao
early Sunday morning to fix us
the delicious and bountiful
breakfast. Your daddy, Rachel
and I thoroughly enjoyed it
The trip home took 7 hours
. . . just a* all of us knew it
would. We were in ? severe
rain storm from Knoxville to
Johnson City and had to drive
at a snail's pace. Still took 7
hours . . . same as on a sunny
day when one can drive as fast
as the law allows. Wish some
one would explain that to me.
Anyway, we arrived home at
. . . had time to unpack,
even mall, read the papers and
0et loads d rest before com
ing to work this morning.
Nothing of great consequ
ence happened while we .were
gone except that the Democra
tic Executive Committee met
Saturday afternoon and elected
Jack Edmisten on the Board of
Elections to replace Archie
Daneey, who resigned recently.
I was real sorry not to be there
in person. However, my proxy
was, and that was just as good.
We have just finished eating
s delicious mango that Mrs.
Robert Gutkin of Miami, Fla.
brought us recently. Are you
familiar with this delicacy? It
seems to be a cross between a
cantalope and an orange and
we were so happy to have an
other. (The Stanley Harrises
brought us one a few years
ago.) Mrs. Gutkin is the daugh
ter of Mr .and Mrs. Roy Eg
gers of Bristol Road, and they
have a summer home between
Boone and Blowing Rock. We
appreciate her thoughtfulness.
A few days ago I had the
pleasure of chatting with Mr.
R. F. Greene, who is improving
from a serious illness. He was
brought home from his Florida
vacation and put in the Cannon
Memorial Hospital in Banner
Elk, where he was a patient a
whole month. He is able to be
out now and It is mighty good
to see him going about hij busi
ness as usual. Mr. Greene had
high praise for the hospital arid
their ten doctors. The hospital
is practically new and this very
minute they need a new 50
bed wing in addition to the 100
bed* they already have. Isn't
that amazing?

interning at that time and he
visited with me twice a day for
almost two weeks. This was and

Because of conflicts I have
bad to miss ever so many nice
functions recently . . . among
them being the birthday party
for Mrs. C. S. Kipp at Blowing
Rock Country Club, which I
hear was a huge and mighty
enjoyable party, and the one
for Pat Dowling Friday morn
ing. This was given by Bea
Hendrix, Lala Hardin and
Lucy Farthing at the Hendrix
home. I know I missed an ex
ceptionally nice party . . . and
in addition to that I regret not
being able to spend some time
in the Hendrix home, one of
the prettiest places in this
town. Bea's antiques are beau
tiful. Wish you could see them
some time.
Had to work last week and
for that reason didn't get to
have a long visit with our
Boone neighbors. John and
Johnny were the only ones Who
came from Darien, Conn.,
where they are living unti! they
can move into a new house they
are planning to buy. The Wal
ter Boones left Wednesday,
but Charlie, Betty and Mary
stayed and also had a visit with
their Cove Creek and Valle
Crucis relatives. Hope to see
more of them next time they
are up.
Also wanted to spend some
time with my cousins, Louise
Johnson Hagaman of Norfolk,
Va. and Ruby Johnson Hill of
Lansing, Mich. They were visit
ing here with their families
and it was good to see them
even for a short time.
