Thursday, August 26, 1976
Spent whole day in kitchen cooking & cleaning. Had beef stroganoff, Italian vegetables with hollandaise sauce. Applesauce salad & melon balls for dessert with Bill & Erma [Hutchman] & Kathi & kids as guests. Heard of their England & Scotland trip. Bill answered Davy’s questions on cremation, how long it takes for a body to go to bones & related items!
Took a walk around house but mosquitos nearly ate us alive. Gave Erma one of the orchids Hughes had given me.
