February Tuesday 15 1927
Alex and I cut logs all day between chores and Roscoe drew two loads to the sawmill in Paris. Had my last cutter ride behind Dollie when I drove up to help Jean fix up the wedding invitations. Posted them on my way home in the moonlight and was home in good time after a dandy evening.
Wednesday 16
A nasty wet morning so Alex and I took the boys to school in his car and then peddled the Upper Town and Flats as far as the Walker {Press?} for Ernie. It faired up in the afternoon so we cut logs and Roscoe made another trip to town.
Thursday 17
Spent a few hours in both the morning and afternoon sawing pine logs in the bush next to Paynes even if it was kind of sloppy under foot.
