miles of Hudson river and Valley were showing and even the Berkshires, tho' it was more misty than the morning had promised. We started off into the woods toward the north and spent the whole morning on that mountain - following the delightful path edged with laurel, with rock and with "view" and climbing hills, rocks and a ladder and finally landing on a big boulder facing the north, where we finally ate lunch, but first found a still more delightful rock, looking inland toward the Kaaterskill and the lake, where we lay in the sun - Gurdon, Alice and I - and enjoyed the breeze a long time. The luncheon was fine. A bottle of coffee apiece &c. and Anna Caswell had made two sandwiches out of the Jack of spades from a pack of card which has been going back and forth between her and Nan Moore since the Pan American year. Coming down from North Mt. who should we come across but Edith and her friend! who had come up on the 11 o'clock train behind us! We went on the station and left lunch basket and coats &c. and then up past the great old mountain house to South Mt. First we scrambled up an impossible little path
