Esther, Norma, Susan and Billie all left for their homes this morning. I hated to see them go as usual. We all enjoyed them all and had a lot of good times. I did a big ironing, done some housework. Fern, Lloyd called. It was a nice day for them. Betty took Norma to Portland in Billie’s car. Dawn here today. Our car in the garage.
