Off (9 A.M.) for Bowling Green Ky. to visit Mammoth Cave & address the Nat. Campers & Hikers Assn. Convention which they call a Campvention. It was a great day 9 A.M. to 4 P.M. Seeing the cave for the 1st time was an experience made more enjoyable by the high morale of the Park Rangers. Our bil. $ refurbishing of the parks was needed & has done a great deal for them. Of course the press had one thing on their minds & it wasn’t a cave—it was Mondales announcement that he had chosen Mrs. Ferraro as his V.P. choice. We helicoptered from the cave to an area where more than 20,000 people had gathered. I addressed them on the environment. They were most friendly. Now I’m back at the W.H.
