After breakfast and dishwashing I played the radio and read until the rest were ready. They collected hooks and such. We went down to a beach and got a boat and went out into the channel. Ellen, June and I each had a hook and Pop rowed. We were out two hours. It was twelve when we got back. June had caught three salmon trout and I had caught one. Before lunch was started Tom and his wife came. After lunch and the dishes I read a while and then came up to the room and wrote some letters. I guess I spent a good part of the afternoon up there because when I got downstairs Uncle Ed had come home and supper was almost ready. There was talking around the supper table until Tom and Ethel had to leave. Then the dishes were done and afterwards there were stories and music. I don’t know what time it is now. I think Uncle Ed is a darling. He’s an Englishman and has had more experiences than a story book hero. There has been talk of Mom and June and I coming here for Christmas.
