In cleaning up prior to going north, JohnLawrence came across a picture taken at their Sanibel Island home in April 1976 and finally developed in May 1977.

John just put Rem and Rel on the plane for Seattle where they will spend a month.

Bill Harris, back a week ago from the Rotterdam world cruise, is fortunate in having a fine job to keep him active. He has signed up to lecture on the Sagafjord world cruise next January. It will make his 25th circumnavigation by ship. He is off on May 28 to Scandinavia and Russia on the Sagafjord and will also do the North Cape cruise which follows the Russian one.

Joe Smith, who bought a winter home last October in Winter Springs, just north of Orlando, did us the honor of meeting us when we got off the auto train in March. It was great to visit while we waited one and a half hours for our car to be unloaded.

After the class officers' weekend, we visited our son Scott and his wife in Montpelier, Vt., and stopped by at the hospital there to see John Stone, who was recuperating from a minor operation.
