Tim stnssn-ff April 12, 19L,6--Friday We woke this morning practically frozen to the sheetsl Af- ter awhile we managed to get to breakfast. We hurried our food down so that we wotldn't be late getting the bus. We didn't want to get left there- it had even begun to snow so you see how cold it was. On our.way to Pennsylvania we vis- ited Frederick, Merylend and had our dinner in the Francis Scott Key Hotel. Also prowled through the rooms in Bar- bara Fritchie's house, seeing the very window out of which she stuck Nher old grey hesdn. This efternoon was made mem- orable by our tour of the Gettysburg battle fields. Tonight we find ourselves in the Yorktown 'Eotel, York, Pennsylvania They heve good movies in this town, too. April l3 , l9L,6--Saturday We had dinner today at Wayne, Pennsylvania, after touring the famous Valley Forge battle grounds. Saw Independence Hall and Betsy Ross house on our way through Philadelphia this afternoon. Arrived in New Yorr around five o'clocK.. We went to Times Square end into Kacy's Department Store where we rode on every escalator running. Had supper and took taxis to Grand Central Station where we get our trein to start home.

THE SUNBEAM , the same bus with us. We had a very enjoyable ride to Washington. Visited the Franciscan Monastery before going to Ebbitt Hotel. The evening was free so most of us went to a movie. NSaratoga Springsn, I believe it was. April 9, l9h6- Tuesday . We went to Arlington National Cemetery and to the tomb of the Unknown Soldier the first thing this morning. fThat is after breakfast! D Our trip to Mt. Vernon was tops for the day. We also visited Lincoln Memorial, Jefferson Memorial and Washington Memorial before dinner. After dinner we went to Ford Theatre, a little trip thought up by our- selves, and the Smithsonian Institute. Soon as supper was over, the bus took us to the Library of Congress. Some of our group stayed at the Library with Miss Proctor longer than others. The rest went back to the hotel and then went sightseeing around the town. We thought Miss Proctor and the folks with her would never return to the hotel to- night. We understand they had a little difficulty with north-west and southweast directions in finding their way back to Tenth Street, N.W., the location of our hotel. April lO, l9h6--Wednesday' We toured the F.E.I. Building this morning. We all thought we had better lead a good life after seeing this building and the ways the tF.E.I. have of tracking down federal of- fenders. Next, we went to the Bureau of Printing and En- ed we had been able to bring back a saw as souvenir of the trip. We al today, but, of course, didn't see dinner, some of us went back to the to stay until supper time. Nothing graving where we wish little of the money we so went to the Capitol the President. After Smithsonian Institute was planned for the evening so we did as we wished once more. April ll, l9n6--Thursday . In the morning we went shopping for souvenirs. We had our dinner and then started on our Skyline Drive to the Shen- andoah Caverns. Had e very delicious Southern-fried chick en dinner at the Shenandoah Caverns Inn. After our sup - per we went sixty feet underground in an elevator to see the wonderful caverns with their beautifully lighted sta- lagmites and stalactytes. There wesn't much to do after our ascent from the caverns. We were sort of out in the country, as you might say. We played games and then went to bed. I might add that the beds were very cold---they hadn't been slept in since before the warl World War II D1 And then too we are now used to nothing but steam-heated rooms. Haven't we been big city Whotelitesn now for about four nights? 15 3
