July 27, 1964
Monday, beautiful day, clear and warm. Clifton started work at Canajoharie; home between 7:30 and 8. Took Carol to camp. Melody came home with Sue. David went to Duanesberg job hunting early at 6 am, no luck. Doug worked down at Laverne's. Gerald started work 5 am. I did a big wash.
Comment: The weeks starts rather busy. I think I'm off hauling bark from the paper mills in Mechanicville to the Timberland plant in Stamford. The trailers were in poor condition with bad brakes and sometimes the trailers were significantly overloaded...and of course, we drove like maniacs....here is the route we took. About 162 miles round trip with perhaps an hour or so for trailer dropping, hook-up and dumping at the plant...we were lucky if we could make 2 trips a day in 10 hours or so......
