| The
scenery is quite nice, but it makes Mt Marcy look like 7th
Heaven. If I stayed for the full camp season (4 different
camps lasting 8 weeks) I'd be back most probably Sept. 1st,
so I'm not staying for last camp, just so I can accompany
you all to Marcy.
I
had a short tour of Toronto when I arrived, and no way (In
my opinion, Alan) is it the shit city its supposed to be.
It's really nice. I had a good close look at the CN Tower,
which looks pretty good!

PLEASE
WRITE!
Please
Please Please. It's the only thing that keeps me from going
insane.
At
the moment (continuously) I'm in the worst vile temper you've
ever seen. And it's going to stay that way. It's the only
way to control the kids, and the temper's no act. Well, anyway,
please write soon,
Your friend

4 Friday
Tom
Snyder on from 1-7am [I became a
real night person that summer, watching Tom Synder's 'Tomorrow'
and listening to Dick Summer on 66 WNBC New York on the radio (with important information such as the world would end in 2012, which seemed remorely far away..).
I think, on a good night I was able to receive a show from
Nashville. Playing with the AM dial began at Long Sault, on
the car radio.
Later
Gillian, Abby, Brian, myself and others scored at the Mapes
(an event recorded on tape - audio
sample), then partied at Gillian's. Andy and Bennie came
over later (audio
sample).
One
event at the Mapes is not recorded, and probably happened
this year. Tracy and I were in the main section one night
and the local biker gang came in. "We want your table"
one said to us. They got it].

6 Sunday
Heather
and I hitchhiked to 'Sunday in the Park' in NDG [around
sunset, starting from under St John's on the 2&20. The
guy who picked us up took us there by a strange route, below
Upper Lachine road by the train yard. We were a bit freaked,
but he took us to the park].
July
7 Monday
Ralph
and I met Heather,Tracy, Brenda, Louise and her cousin (they saw us as we walked by the Manior coming back from
the God class). [We made our way
to Brenda's where] she and Tracy had a fight.
July
10 Thursday
Maggie,
Guy and I did mesc, played pool at the Mapes
[around this time Maggie, Guy (her French boyfriend) and
I would spend afternoons at the Mapes, toking and playing
pool. Fred would sometimes be there too. The song "Old
Black Water" by the Doobie Brothers reminds me of these
afternoons, as it always seemed to be playing there].
July
12 Saturday
[Went
with Rob and Mich to visit a friend of Rob's from work in
St Bruno. At the apartment there was a fake mountain and pool
of water. Also went for a walk in the woods].
July
13 Sunday
Began
a game of 4000 AD between Rob, Mich, Ralph and I that we continued
into November and never did finish.
July
15 Tuesday
Got
the muffler done on the Lincoln. The American/Russian joint
space shot was launched.
Mike
was in Algonquin Park [this may be
wrong. As the letter above states, he was working at a camp
in Ontario]. Ralph worked at Pascal's warehouse
on the Trans-Canada in Pointe Claire.
