Wednesday, March 17, 1971 HENS

Partly cloudy. I done up my work, went down to Betty’s and helped her to get ready for her hens. Dawn called on her this morning. Then we picked up Kimmy, we went down to Westbrook and Betty bought 12 laying hens of Mr. Ricci’s. We called at Dorothea’s and took the iron to her and the milk can she wanted. Es and Cliff over tonight. We counted out the RR passes.

A nice day until about 2 PM. Then it clouded up. In a.m. Betty took Kim to school, then we went over to Aunt Ava’s and got rest of the things out of the house and shop. Lloyd hauled them home for us. Mrs. Pam Hayward bought rest of Betty’s antiques. Carmen came up after school to stay all night. It began to snow about dusk and it snowed real hard. Zak and Betty came up, she brought up Bill’s Coat of Arms she got for him.
