During midday we sat around ate lunch and wrote field notes, keeping out of the hot sun. At 2 p.m. we packed and headed for the town. There Dr. Miller had a flat fixed for his Ford. After this we left his car at the Monument Hgts. and headed for the Dale district in the Pontiac. Several miles out of town we blew out the right front tire.

To ease the load on the Pontiac's tires we then put some of our equipment into Dr. Miller's car and set out again for the Dale District, this time at 4 p.m. this time taking both cars.
