Very nice day. Bill had to go to work early this morning. They did spraying with the planes. He had to go up to help direct traffic. Billie worked. In p.m. Bill and I went downtown and bought the new rug. Painted the dining room floor. A very bad rain at night. Some lightning and showers. Kennie and Raymond upcountry to go fishing.

Nice day but windy. Mama and Betty up to Waterford and Stoneham with Aunt  Ava and Uncle Lewis. Bill and I went down to the cemetery. I washed and cooked. Robert laid the new kitchen rug.

A nice day, windy. Vernie harrowed the garden. Rita called. Bill went early this morning but it was too windy and they couldn’t spray so came back. Virgins and two grandchildren called today. Billie put on the screens.
