Monday June 21st

It rained or threatened rain nearly all day so we didn't do very much Frank got home a little before noon He came up to town with the Ward girls when they came to school and Tom Butler brought him over here. Dad. and I did odd jobs and I worked at my show cards a little This after noon Frank painted the bob-sleighs and tidied up in the shop. I went down to band practice to-night.

Tuesday June 22nd

I went down when Dad. drove Tid. to school this morning and went down to the beach to paint the letters Quint wanted on their bathing houses, but when I got there George Holden told me he had just left so I went over to the pier and saw old Quint just out of earshot beyond the end of the pier in his little boat heading for Wooley's point or beyond up the lake. I went up to the Thompson's to see if I could get the key from Joe but he said the paint was all locked up in Quint's shack and he had the key. Joe seemed rather provoked at him for leaving as he said they expected a big picnic in on Saturday and didn't have any thing ready for it. I went up to Aunty's and cut their lawn and stayed to dinner. On my way home Mrs. Quanbury gave me a lot of aster plants so I spent most of the after noon setting them out. Dad. and Frank spent their day putting up the fence between the lane and the barn-yard and made a fine job of it.
