<DIV>Been there and going there again in May. The kitchen brought memories of
the World's Fair of 1964/65 as the concept of a modern kitchen was part of the
GE Carousel of Progress.</DIV>

<DIV>And what did you think of the finish on the cabinets? Really
something!</DIV>

<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt"><FONT style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt">Some years ago I
had the privilege of getting a personal tour of the Louis Armstrong archives
at Queens College in NY. I heard excerpts from the many tapes that Louis made
over the years, held one of his trumpets and saw the over 650 tape boxes that
he decorated. </FONT></P>

Louis and Lucille, his 4<SUP>th</SUP> wife, lived beginning in 1942 was being
prepared to be opened as a museum. I was offered a tour of the house but it
was too late that day and I never got back. </FONT></P>

<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt"><FONT style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt">On my current
visit to NY this week, I finally got to the house. As any of you who have been
there can attest, it is quite an experience to walk up the front steps where
Louis used to sit with the neighborhood kids and buy them ice cream when the
ice cream truck drove by, stand in the dining room where they entertained so
many guests, see the bed that Louis slept and died in and to see his den where
he spent most of his time. </FONT></P>

<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 10pt"><FONT style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt">Since there were
no children to change the house after Lucille passed, it stayed the same until
it could be opened as a museum. Everything is the same as when Louis and
Lucille lived there. </FONT></P>
