Miss Norma’s Diary – July 10, 1961 – “Those were Beatniks we were camped by.”

Monday

“Today we got up and got dressed and ate breakfast. Then Barbara and I went down to the creek and we threw rocks at craw dads and fish. We had a lot of fun before we left. Those were Beatniks we were camped by. We didn’t drive too far today.

We are at a motel now cause Daddy didn’t want to put up the tent for one night.”

Miss Norma’s Diary – July 9, 1961 – “There weren’t any cute boys there but we had fun”

Sunday

“Today when Barbara and I got up we ate breakfast then we all went for a hike up to the store. We had to cross creeks and everything. Mommy almost slipped in the water. When we got back from the store, we ate lunch and then after a while we went to the Big Bur swimming pool for a couple of hours. The water was real warm. There weren’t any cute boys there but we had fun. At night we ate and then Barbara and I caught tadpoles. We had 29 tadpoles and 3 little fish.

We are leaving Big Sur tomorrow and we will be on the road again.”
