The
Camp
Tues, July 14, 1925
Before
leaving Brooklyn we had decided this expedition must pay
for itself and that we wouldn't diminish the scanty store
left in the bank. Although we had hoped to travel a long
distance before it would be necessary to earn more, the
prolonged stay here has eaten up most of the $80 we brought
with us; and now we must find work.
After first looking into the water power development on
top of the Green Mountains near Readsboro, Bill hopes to
get a job at the General Electric Co. at Schenectady, N.Y.,
thereby killing two birds with one stone: learning all he
can about G.E., and earning enough money to travel another
leg of our journey.
We hate to leave so soon after Mother and Dad's arrival
yesterday but we feel we must be on our way and have been
packing, tugging and tying all day. Our duffle is piled
high on the motorcycle and tomorrow we become vagabonds
again.
