Zak is home!

A beautiful day. Sunny and clear. I got my work done up. Went down to Walt and Betty’s and cleaned Betty’s house up good. Walt brought Betty and baby home about 10:30. She was very glad to be home. It looks very good to her. The baby is a sweet pretty little bundle. His sisters were very pleased with him. Fern, Lloyd called. Walt did some grocery shopping. He helped Betty. Betty is very very sore and lame. Holly and family called in evening. We went down. She was so awful tired. I cooked their supper, Walt came and got it. Bill worked on vacuum cleaner. Billie picked vegetables tonight, frost warnings.
