Gill, Douglas E. 1964 -133- changed and went out just as Larry and Dayle came back. I ate at the Waikiki Biltmore. When I got back I found Larry in a mosquito tent. We all hit the sack around 1130. 13 August 1964: I got up at 0815 and had breakfast. I was about to start a young Sooty Tern when Larry advised not to until the maid had cleaned up the room. We decided to go out and buy some dry ice and I wanted to buy a new scalpel. I couldn't find any at Ala Moana so gave up and we went and 25 lbs of dry ice. We waited for the maid to finish when we got back and finally started skinning around noon. I was mostly finished with a young Sooty by 1345, went down and had lunch in the coffee shop, and finished the bird by 1530. I started a second but realized I couldn't finish it by 1800 so I did everything but stuff it until 1745. Then Larry and I dressed for dinner over at Bob Long's. Dave fortunately brought the car back at six and off we went. I got a curious letter, a critique sheet of my journal, from Fred which I'm still trying to understand. Bob lives over on Makiki Street in a new apartment building. Dennis somebody, a Botanist from the University who just got his Masters, joined us. The conversation was en- joyable and the lasagne was good. We saw a few slides of the ATF trip and finally left around 1130. Bob, Dennis, and his wife recommended that I get my degree first and not postpone it. When we got back (hearing the last movement of Schuman's 3rd) I reread Fred's letter and hit the sack. 14 August 1964: We got up late around 9:30. After breaking our fast I finished up the young Sooty Tern I skinned out last night. The feathers kept coming out I suppose because it had waited so long to be stuffed. He
