TranscriptBuie House, Jackson. Breakfast, then packed for leaving; due in Covington by 5 oclock.
Met class at noon; lunch at 1.30, again in room off cafeteria. Said goodbyes; left Jackson, again on I-55, at 2.30. Stopped for gas at McComb, 20 miles short of La line; in Covington, at Percy house, by 5.10. Walker somewhat frail & clearly in pain at times, but in good spirits despite condition. No side effects, so far, from radiation, but no effect on the cancer, either. Bunt cooked crawfish etoufée for supper, which Walker & I preceded with a couple of drinks – bourbon for him, scotch for me. Retired at 10 – their bedtime. Read till 11; good night’s sleep. |
