Nothing Much Else Happened: July 25, 1978

Today we started out with the great Empire State Building! 1st we took an elevator to the 86th floor observatory and had a 25-mile view north, south, East and west and everyplace in between. Then we dropped in on the famous library, and then — my favorite — the famous toy store F.A.O. Schwartz. At 4:30, one of mom's old friends, Bill Butler came to see her. We had a great time at dinner, even though the food wasn't that good. We then went to see "The Gin Game" which was a barrel-and-a-half of laughs.

That was the Broadway production of "The Gin Game" with Jessica Tandy and Hume Cronyn.

All punctuation and spelling has been retained precisely as I wrote it 32 years ago at age 12.

What's this all about? This is what it's all about.
