February 25 - 28, 1969 Another Blizzard

Tuesday, February 25, 1969 BLIZZARD

Another big blizzard. It began yesterday with a ordinary snow storm. It snowed hard and wind blowed hard all night. Drifts and more drifts. Bill out all night, home for breakfast about 9 AM. Billie got out and went to work. Had to shovel some to get out. No mail today. I’ve been thinking of Betty and children today. Hope they are all right. I done regular work, mended a dress. I got a brief call from Betty.

Wednesday, February 26, 1969 BLIZZARD continued

Continuance of the blizzard and storm. Billie didn’t get to work. I washed those sheets. Been thinking of Betty all day. I called her. She didn’t feel very good, Walt home. Bobby Stanford called. Lloyd home tonight because of the storm.
