s JULY 20 - At 1620, we anchored in the lovely harbor of Cannes alongside the noisily overjoyed EVERGLADES. We v ere her ticket home. She met us with brass band and banners warning us of months of hard work ahead and taunting us with ideas of Christmas away from home. No time was wasted in moving the Staff aboard with working parties carrying, welding, and securing material into the new office spaces. Work went on into the late evening with our fourth meal of the day at 2200 and taps at 2400. If we had a minute to look, we could hardly believe that it was really the French Riviera gleaming less than a mile away. JULY 21 - Up early as usual, it took the better part of the day to finish the transfer. However in the afternoon we anchored out away from the EVERGLADES. The EVERGLADES greets us with a display of joy! A preview of what will greet our relief, the CADMUS. SHI Was WE ' VE HAD T . yoim: cor it fV£R£COWC OME
