November 25 - 27, 1971 Thanksgiving, Fern Comes Home, Bad Storm




Thursday, November 25, 1971 FIRST BAD SNOW STORM today about 8 inches

Watch a bad snowy day. We had a nice Thanksgiving dinner. Betty, Walt and Pa and children up here. We had turkey, gravy, stuffing, mashed potato, turnip, onions, shell beans, celery, pickles, olives, salad. Rolls, dark bread, lemon sponge pie, date filled pie, cupcakes, ice cream. A very good dinner, but it is much different than it used to be. We had a good time tho. In evening Joy and family called. No one to hospital to see Fern because of the storm. Lloyd sick with diarrhea.



Friday, November 26, 1971 Fern Came Home

What a mess things are this morning after the awful storm of yesterday. Things are clogged and messed up with snow and slippery and slushy. I did regular work, cooked today. Fern came home today. She looks good now with her skin mess gone. It cleared up good. Betty and Esther down there to cleaned her house up before she came home. I went down to Betty’s to help of the kids. Walt plowed his driveway. Betty didn’t feel good tonight.
