June 2. Went down to Davison’s with kids in afternoon. In
evening Joe called me up. He came down. We stayed home, took
a little walk around block. I gave Joe his present. He was crazy
about it. Kissed me right in front of Jim and Norine. He X’ed me
goodbye about 20 times.
June 3. Stayed home in afternoon. Was expecting Joe’s parents.
