I made one really good attempt to get heat on the 4th of July weekend, 1967. Our Navy destroyer was invited up from San Diego to Everett, Washington, for the 4th. I decided to go over to Whidby Island to look over the old fortification site. Our beloved captain made the liberty uniform dress wool blues. Hiked and looked around, rode the ferry back, and caught the bus back into town. Got off the bus and realized I had all I could do to find my way along the sidewalk. A YMCA was within a few steps; I sat down and drank a whole
lot of fluids, and came around in a little while.
