Trella Hemmerly – 1987-03-10

Tuesday, March 10, 1987 to Philadelphia Flower Show
Two bus loads left Reading for Civic Center in Philadelphia taking about 100 there for the flower show. Arrived at 11:30 and overwhelmed by displays, gardens, arrangements. Mary got sick after waiting 20 minutes to use restroom. While I was in cafeteria line she almost fainted. June got Red Cross aid for her. She recovered with tea and Maalox. I shot three rolls of film. Left at 4:00. Got inspiration for Marion Bicentennial committee, then sponsored tour to Philadelphia for Bicentennial of U.S. constitution. In Reading by 5:30 and stopped for supper before going home.
