TRUE STORY

A DAY FROM MY DIARY June 29, 1976

Betty Ann, IL-17-A,

Today was one of my best and most delightful days. The tempera- ture was 72 degrees F, partly cloudy and a slight breeze blowing. (I hate wind, it messes my hair).

Not only was the weather perfect, but my trip out as Betty Ann was one of my more pleasant and exciting ones.

The day started with me having to take my car to the dealer for service and at the same time to take two trailer tires to another place for spin balancing. Both places are located about twenty five miles from my home. Since this would take all day and entail waiting at the service garages, my wife would not go along. (My wife is class C-D and the less she sees or knows about Betty Ann the better.)

My plans were to change clothes at a rest stop and let Betty Ann out of the box after all the servicing on my car was completed. I had Betty Ann's fem things on under my shirt, trousers, socks, shoes and jacket. I thought that I might get one or two hours at the end of the day dressed as Betty Ann.

About 10 miles from home on my right was a rest stop. In a flash, something told me to turn in and change clothes and do all my business that day as Betty Ann. I never gave it a second thought and followed through with the change. (This rest stop is on a lightly traveled road and has practically no patronage.)

Since it was a cool day I wore a tan sleeveless double knit dress with red, white and black trim on collar and blet along with a matching long sleeve jacket. I wore an auburn wig with shaped neck- line and waves with just a whisper of bangs in front.
