Some cloudiness but clear, 70. I baked, David helped Gerald fix his car at Tom's. Had letter and picture from Marilyn.
Comment: On the trip in from Niagara Falls, my 1962 Ford Falcon started losing power until it barely ran. I took it over to Tom O'Hara's in Prattsville and he diagnosed it as severely burnt valves and offered to coach me while I tore it apart, removed the valves, got them ground and replaced them. It took all afternoon and David was there in his car to drive to the valve grinding place and return. Tom did not charge me anything for the use of his garage or tools.....here are some other memories of Tom and a picture of him on Hubbard Hill about mid ninties or so...can you name the other folks??
