Tuesday, 23 August, 1966, The Frances Hubbard Diaries

Tuesday, 23 August, 1966, The Frances Hubbard Diaries
Rainy and cloudy in mn and.  Very humid, clearing about 3 pm.  I ironed, finished dress Roberta gave me.  Roberta, John and Deane, Shawn, Colleen and Jones girls here in pm.  I cut their hair.  Carol called from Oneonta, she had a letter from Marilyn. We went to Wayne's at night, LaVerne's went too.
Comment:  Again, it is striking how socially active Mom and the girls were back then.  Something going on almost every day.  Carol must be staying in Oneonta for some reason if she got a letter from Marilyn there.  She went to college for a time somewhere but I don't remember where or when...Susan?? The whole married family at about that time......David & Mary, Doug & Ellen, Wayne & Laura, Gerald & Mary Ann, LaVerne & Roberta, Marilyn & Jim.....pretty good times, it seemed anyway...

Susan Ciacci So, Carol had a friend she met at the Baptist camp on Ferris Hill, Joyce Knapp. Carol often visited there for a week or so. I don't remember her ever being in Oneonta for an extended period of time. She went to college at Seneca Falls, or Niagara, out where you lived at the time Jerry.

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?"
