Wednesday, May 19, 1971

A nice sunny day, on the cool windy side. I done up work. Down to Betty’s. She mowed lawns for first time. I picked greens. Had a big mess for supper. Susan up to Betty’s for a little while. Bill worked for Gordon. Ilan called in evening. Esther called a minute. Dorothea was on radio trading or selling program, but radio so noisy couldn’t hear her.
