Crowley 1942 Journal June 3 Camp Azalea, nr. Gen. Grant Park Rdgs, 6700 ft., Fresno Co., Calif. After dinner Jean and Bob plucked birds while we all looked on. Weather cold, clear. June 4 351 Buena Vista Ave., S.F., Calif. We finished our last camping day with a bonfire and toasted marshmallows, to the accompaniment of Jean and her flute. Jean and her flute were accompan- ed by E[illegible], Hyla and owl. At 10:30 P.M. most of the party were storing up energy for the next day - and one was storing. The stars were large brilliant sequins on the clear midnight blue sky. Jean and I watched shooting stars for a while. At 4:50 this morning we started to break camp. We left at 5:30 A.M. for Fresno and breakfast. The morning (and night and how) was cold but clear. When the sun finally broke through the day warmed rapidly. We (Mrs. Ern- ell and Marie; Harvey - Bob- Jean in the truck; and Ida and I) drove on Highway 180 to Fresno. We saw a rabbit on the road, Mourning Dove on a fence post, Meadow Larks on fences. A Calif. Woodpecker clung to the side of a fence post. A Shrike dove.
