Well, we planned to get started at seven this morning and we were just a few minutes behind what we planned. We said good-bye to the Moar family in front of their house and then went on to LeRoy. There Mom made a five minute call at a drug store to see one of the friends she missed at the picnic. On the way to Minneapolis this morning we went thru Austin (where some of the relations live) and the town where Carleton College is. (Grace & Ester Howe are going there and where all the MacGinnis’s went) We telegraphed Mom’s Cousin Harry that we would be there by noon. We were late by two minutes. They live in Minneapolis and Aunt Eliza is with them. We stayed for lunch with them and it all took so long that it was two thirty before we left their house and three before we got out of the cities. After we got onto the state road going north in Wis. we certainly had beautiful scenery on both sides of us. Uncle Ed had told us to come to the Rex Hotel so we did and we found him and Aunt Carrie. He saw to it that we got something to eat (chicken) and about nine thirty we went to look on at the dance next door. I enjoyed looking on but I’d hate to be a wallflower.
