A pretty good day, on the cool side. We finished kitchen cupboards and did the china cupboards in the dining room. I was down there all day. In evening she and Walt came up. Kimmy up here all night. Bill Melbye’s cottage (the former Gleason cottage also Seavers was owner of it at one time) burned flat tonight. Esther went to Joy’s today for a few days. Fern and Lloyd went with them.

Partly cloudy. Some sun. Very cold this morning. It got warmed up a little during the day. I got up early, got my work done and went down to Betty’s for the day. She and Walt and Carmen all went down to Dawn and Ed’s for the day to help them on the barn. I washed and did lot down there today. Kimmy was up here most of the day. Billie went with Lawrence to get some cattle. He got kicked by a steer and his knee is swollen, quite bad. Today Dexter came to see about digging for the foundation of the new barn.
