<\/a>Trudel’s Skates<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n
Sunday, June 16, we had beautiful weather. I sat three hours in sunshine in a park. For the first time in 14 years I went roller-skating, but only 2 blocks. The shoes with the skates which I had borrowed were too tight. But it was fun.<\/p>\n
<\/a>Trudel on Rollerskates<\/p><\/div> After one hour walk we had a wonderful dinner and then we sat for about one hour in my room where I gave Leonard a fashion show of all my clothes.<\/p>\n
Good morning. I fell almost asleep last night while writing. <\/p>\n Monday, June 17, I spent all day at home. <\/p>\n Tuesday, I had a date with Aunt Henny. After waiting for her for one hour I went home again. It was raining too hard \u2013 she could not come!!! <\/p>\n Wednesday I worked overtime and ate downtown. In my \u00bd hour lunchtime I got soaked shopping for a birthday present for Leonard.<\/p>\n Because of everything I did [in the past few days] my back and shoulders still hurt. <\/p>\n Thursday at home. Sewing. <\/p>\n Steamer Theodore Rosevelt<\/p><\/div> Flora Mae & LJG<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n Afterwards we ate downtown in a very nice place. Unfortunately it was raining all evening. LJG Plays Tennis<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n Saturday, June 22, Leonard played tennis for the first time in three years and of course was very tired afterwards. We had dinner at a very nice rooftop restaurant with a very good with a nice floor show. Excellent orchestra and very good food, except that Leonard found a long, rusty nail in his steak. Fortunately he did not get hurt.<\/p>\n Sunday, June 23, I was with you in thought at the cemetery. [I believe that was the second anniversary of Trudel’s mother’s death. -Ed.<\/em>]<\/p>\n Chinatown Squad<\/p><\/div>That day we spent time with Flora Mae. Also met Hans K\u00f6sterlitz. After dinner at a park, we went on a \u201cmerry go round\u201d operated by foot and then on a \u201cwippe<\/em> [teeter totter or see-saw].” Leonard was 210 pounds on one side and Flora Mae and I (together) about 200 pounds. Up and down and down and up. It was hilarious. Flora Mae, LJG, and Trudel<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n We stopped on the way home at a movie, \u201cChinatown Squad,\u201d and a very good stage show. <\/p>\n Sunday, June 30, We picked up Flora Mae and spent afternoon on Gray\u2019s roof. Fireworks on way home. Weather very hot, too hot to even go swimming.<\/p>\n On Gray’s Roof<\/p><\/div> 1000 greetings and kisses,<\/p>\n Trudelchen<\/em> Trudel’s translations and notes did not include a letter specifically mentioning what they did on July 4, LJG’s Birthday, but her photo albums did include at least one photo taken that day.<\/em><\/p>\n

\nFriday, June 21, Gwen and Eddy picked us up for a boat ride. Grace Gray had arranged a party of 12 people in the captain\u2019s cabin. This boat trip took 2 \u00bd hours. I wore the altered chiffon dress, a new hat, white shoes, linen coat, white purse and gloves and a lot of makeup.<\/a><\/a><\/a><\/a><\/a>
\nOn Tuesday, July 2, I had a date with a nice girl from N\u00fcrnberg I had met at Samuels. She helped me tie together 43 little packages I had wrapped for Leonard\u2019s 43rd birthday which is July 4 (tomorrow).<\/p>\n
