sion, as their guest.
Commenting on this trip. Mr. Gir-
ardet said, "It is a wonderful way to
attend a Convention, since it is very
relaxing. We had been gone for just
about a month and arrived on the job
healthy, tanned and rested. Figuring
out distance covered, we estimated it to
be 750 nautical miles. Both Joyce and
I highly recommend this method of
traveling to an N.A.M.M. Convention.
Our only regret is that we will not be
able to take the boat to Chicago next
vear."
