Oh.
Hello, President.
Well, how's the weather?
I just put a call in from Manoa because what had happened was I had my report from National Weather Service, which didn't look too good, and then I got an Air Force report, which looked good, so I just had National Weather check it again.
Now they've changed theirs, and they indicate that it'll be windy but sunny, mid-70s high and low 60s low.
Huh.
pretty much right on through Sunday.
First, the early report I'd said would be front coming through here tonight, and then early morning showers, and afternoon fair to partly cloudy, and sunny and fair Saturday, and then cloudy on Sunday.
The last one I just got just three minutes ago,
concurs with the other one, which says it's going to be better.
So take your pick on that.
I'll tell you, I may give a call in the morning.
I don't know.
I've got a cabin meeting at 9.30 and side to land.
Okay?
I'll call you about 9 o'clock, maybe.
Fine.
My guess is good, but I'll tell you, after the luck you've had, I don't want to urge it.
It appears now that they're in accord, so it doesn't look bad.
Right.
Good.
It doesn't look bad at all.
Mm-hmm.
Oh, good, good, good.
Back all right yesterday.
We had a nice trip back.
Played cards.
Right.
A little bit.
Good.
Good.
That's the truth.
What a prize.
What a prize.
Right, right, right.
Delight to be around her.
Oh, good.
Yes, sir.
Well, you can...
I hope you can work it out.
I think it's worth the gamble, frankly.
That weather up there is no prize.
No, never is.
You know.
So what the heck.
All right.
Well, someday, I think we'll have you go to
Jamaica, you know, to look.
I think the only way to check that baby isn't for me not to go, you know.
I've got to do it.
You've come, huh?
Yes, I've got to do it.
In fact, I want to talk to Conley the next time he's in this country about it.
He's in the country now.
Is he?
I think I'll talk to him this afternoon.
Right, you can get him a phone.
I think I will.
Tell him you'd like to come down and look it over?
Yeah.
Put it that way, that you want to come down and look it over.
Yeah, I'll do it.
Good.
That means there's a good chance.
All right, you bet.
