Thursday, November 25, 1965, The Frances Hubbard Diaries

Thursday, November 25, 1965
Thanksgiving, Cloudy, 42.  LaVerne, Roberta, John here for dinner.  Laura here at night.  Called Marilyn,  girls had chicken pox and they had had 11 inches of rain in Southern California.  Gerald and Mary Ann called and said they were planning on coming home Friday night.
Comment:  Rain and chicken pox would seem to be a bad combination....a quiet thanksgiving on the hill...on this same day Arlo Guthrie had dinner at friend Alice Brock's deconsecrated church in Great Barrington, Mass, and got himself arrested for littering after the clean-up and afterwards wrote his famous "Alice's Restaurant".  Take a look and a listen:  "you can get anything you want at Alice's restaurant...."  The Alice's Restaurant Anti-Massacre Movement...

You're always young in your mind it is said, No matter the face in the mirror, That you see with surprise then say to yourself, "What is that old man doing here?"
