Even Grandma Anna Drexler and Lena came along. Lena and her mother feel very good. Well, I'm getting used to these late nights; this is #3 for us, Thursday, Friday, Saturday. The White Bass Festival ends tonite with the crowning of the "White Bass Queen" Mary Erdlitz." [from A. E. Potter's diaries]
