The Geyers went through a tor- nado, passed through flooded areas, and got caught in a snow storm. In Nevada the temperatures soared to 125 degrees. Doc’s advise to any- one driving through Nevada in the summer is “Push your gas pedal down and keep going.” He reported that the Alaskan highway is in good condition and that their car is still in good condition, “Nothing is loose, nothing rattles and I didn't have a flat tire during the entire trip.” In St. Petersburg they visited with Mrs. Gey: mother, Mrs. Irma Deidrick. Mrs. Deidrick re- turned with them to the west coast and returned by air to her southern home. In Portland, they visited with Mr. and Mrs. A. M. Geyer, parents of Dr. Geyer. The elder Geyers, who lived for many years in Ju- neau, left last winter to settle per- manently in the States. In Reno, Nevada, they visited with Mr. and Mrs. Bob Geyver and in Seattle they stayed with Mr. and Mrs. Joe Storms, sister and trother-in-law of Dr. Geyer. Dr. Geyer attended an alumnus meeting of the University of Ore- gon Dental School in Portland and was in attendance at the 62nq an- ! nual convention of the Washington State Dental Scciety in Seattle.
