carmel (23) Hilda & I took a long walk to Mission & returned by the beach. (24) Hilda & I engaged in riding horses at Del Monte Hotel where we took lunch & looked over the Park & lit grounds. We rode out at 2 P.M., but Hilda's horse stampeded when frightened by a motor & threw her off in a grassy ditch but did not injure Hilda. She remounted as soon as we cought the horse & me than took a ride over the 17 mile grislanding roads. At 5 P.M., we reached Pebble Beach Lodge & took tea before a great fire place. We returned to Del Monte in the moon light & had dinner with Mrs. Reunault & her wife.
