After a heavy rain last night it cleared off and was a nice cool day. I washed today. We got ready, piled into the car and took off for Zayres. Susan, Norma, Blanche, Betty, Carmen and I. Susan got her a new bathing suit. Betty and Norma each got a new purse or pocket book. Billie not feeling very good, is strapped up. Pig got hurt.
