got home about 2 AM and to bed. Hugo and his wife will contact us next week and make arrangements for the gang to visit and see his home.
Sunday July 17th
To Church with Helen at 10:30. Our folks are in a new parish St Joseph's cut out from their Old Parish. Our Lady of Refuge. As they tell me the story-their present Pastor was a curate at the old Church and one day he received a call from the Chancelly telling him that he was now the Pastor of St. Joseph's turned over a piece of land and a bill covering the cost $26,000 and that's all. Nothing else. So he's in business and has to find temporary quarters for church which he finally arranged for by renting the Public School Cafeteria. So now Bob and Kay are Pillars of the Church and on different organizing committees. Lunch consisted of Turkey Sandwiches w/stuffing. Subsequently all took a ride to a Shopping Center which incidentally are open all day w/the Liquor Stores- 5&10 all included. Couldn't quite get over this but that seems to be the custom. Imagine running out of Beer on a Sunday and without any scrounging around drive to a Liquor Store and pick up anything.
