[0:01] Patricia, Mr. President.
[0:03] Daddy, hi.
[0:04] Patricia, I wonder if you would tell I'd, uh... No, I think we all ought to go, because, you see, I work at Birch anyway.
[0:20] Yeah.
[0:20] I have to go over to Birch and work, and, uh...
[0:23] And it's just as well, it gives me a little relaxation.
[0:26] You know, in the evening we can have dinner and stuff.
[0:28] Okay, if you don't mind.
[0:29] No, I think it's fine.
[0:30] That'd be nice.
[0:31] And tell them that we should all go.
[0:32] And we will not go.
[0:34] When will you be going up?
[0:37] Saturday noon.
[0:38] Yeah.
[0:38] Because I have a meeting.
[0:39] The others have eaten earlier.
[0:41] Yeah.
[0:42] But I can't go until Saturday noon.
[0:44] But maybe you and Mommy and the rest should drive up maybe even Friday.
[0:48] Uh-huh.
[0:48] See, we have a reception for the secretaries here at the White House after Mommy and I get back from Mississippi.
[0:53] And so you ought to just go up Friday night, maybe, or something.
[0:58] Okay.
[0:59] The earlier the better.
[1:00] But just be sure that Julie, because I sent a message over to Julie indicating, you know, well, maybe it'd be better for her, you and Eddie, to go up to Camp David and
[1:09] you know, to entertain mommy and so forth.
[1:12] But it'll look funny.
[1:13] I mean, what the hell was it?
[1:14] What the hell are you few up there in the yard?
[1:16] I mean, not that that matters, but right now people are watching what we do.
[1:20] Right.
[1:20] So we'll go to Camp David.
[1:23] I'll be there Saturday about noon, Saturday afternoon.
[1:28] Time for a swim.
[1:29] Have a Saturday night.
[1:31] We'll come back.
[1:31] What time does Eddie have to go back?
[1:43] Right.
[1:44] Well, what we may do is to stay up and have dinner there and have a movie and then come back that night.
[1:51] That sounds great.
[1:53] I hope you do that.
[1:54] Stay overnight.
[1:54] Is there anything special you'd like us to get?
[1:56] Movies?
[1:58] Yeah.
[1:59] Oh, boy.
[2:01] I don't know.
[2:03] about what we've seen around the world in 80 days.
[2:07] Okay, good.
[2:08] Or do you think of anything else like that village?
[2:13] Lawrence of Arabia.
[2:16] That's better.
[2:17] Lawrence of Arabia.
[2:18] Good.
[2:19] All right.
[2:19] Okay.
