DICKER 1971 23 Oct. Took Hovercraft at 1000 to Boulogne, driving to Fontainebleau that night, by-passing Paris to west & going through Senlis, Meaux & Melun. Short of Beauvais, the car started to [illegible] misbehave, acting though there was a clog in the carburetter - causing trouble at speeds under 50 mph. Stayed that night in the Hotel Napoleon. 24 Oct. Cut over to the Autoroute & continued South. At 13 mi. N Mâcon we stopped for a break & noticed a microscopic outbreak along the road. We even found a dead owl lying in a runway. It was too rotten to save but took the skull. Several photos taken of us. Turned off Autoroute at Bollevin turnoff. At Bayard took the road to Ales & from there S. toward Martillac, but turning W again to Quissac. The S on D45 about 12 km. to turn off to Claret. Claret is about 2 km. from the jet. Proceeding through town we turned S. on the road marked to Mas Blanc & in another 2 km. came to Dolgue, the old house where Larry & Anne [illegible] live. We arrived about 2030. 25 Oct. Took car to mechanic at Claret who easily cleared out a valve in the carburetter causing all our trouble. Went shopping & to bank at Quissac, postal, & exhibited around Dolgue.
