Partly cloudy. Some light rain. Didn’t do much today. In a.m. went down to Betty’s and looked at her photo albums. They enjoyed it all very much. Came home, I made preparations for supper. A happy surprise, Dorothea came and brought some goodies. She was here for supper. I’m glad she came. Also we had invited Stan to come. He seemed to enjoy his visit with everyone and supper. In evening Betty came up also. George and Betty seem to enjoy their visit here very much. Dorothea and Dave’s car is so pretty.
