June 6 - 9, 1960

Monday, June 6, 1960

A very nice day. Bill didn’t work. I washed, trimmed grass. Bill and I went up on the Ridge and over to Will Holdens looking for pansy plants. Got some over to Hiltons after supper. We set them out. Betty started her exams today. Gordon Sanborn came and harrowed the garden. I cleaned the grain room.

Another nice day except it was cooler. I finished my cleaning today. I did rest of the barn. Gordon came today, hauled out the dressing and harrowed. Tonight after Bill got home we went to town. Bill to see Dr. Skillins. Then we planted some of the garden. Billie hauled rubbish off tonight. Betty came home happy tonight. She had her bookkeeping exam and typing test. She has passed her BOOKKEEPING. She is so relieved and pleased. And so am I. She sure did okay.

A very nice day on the cool side. I finished the ironing. Washed and pressed Betty’s slacks and some sweaters. Betty finished school for this year. Tonight we planted rest of the garden except the rest of the shell beans.

Another very nice day. Today I washed out in the barn for the first time this year. Betty home and helped to do the work. In evening she went to the BHS graduation. Blanche, Bob, Joy and Frank went. I took care of Debbie. She was very cute. Raymond called and Kennie and Dot. Betty stayed up to Irene’s. Good news came from Dorothea and Dennis. They may come back to the states.
