Got up at 10 – sent money orders to Whitmore and Smith for Dad’s book by Kagama and to Good English Magazine. It is a gorgeous day do I walked around a bit. Fixed some pictures 
in a new album. Went to Velma’s & stayed to supper. Took an angel food cake from the cafeteria. It was luscious! I think this is the last page I’ll write in this book – Adios!
*editors note – This is the final page of the Journal Mexico Summer. I am in the process of turning this into an e-book. I will link the book to this website when it is complete. In the meantime there’s good news! I have Grandma’s Diary that begins on January 12, 1936.
