July 18th was Sonnies 25th birthday. He worked very late came home evening, dark. I gave him a big bag of clothes mostly shirts and 3 shorts. Alicia gave him a batik sarong wrap around. He more or less celebrated his birthday on Saturaday by going ice skating with a girl friend and being out for the day. Mat and Alicia dropped me at Pokai Bay to swim over the noon time. They went swimming at Yokahama Kaeana Point which was rocky shoreline which would have been to rough for me. Sunday I went to church.It rained all day so I was lazy, made phone calls to close friends. Called Maria, 81 years, who came back to PA Murrysville JUly 18 after a weeks vacation in Chicago with her son. She said she was treated like a queene. Im happy for her.
