Marj. wanted me to go to church this morning but as the cows have got through the barbed wire that I put up in the gully the last two days, I had to go down and take it down so that they could get in the lower end of the gully with out going over or through barbed wire and cutting themselves, and so couldn't go to church but as it turned out such a beautiful warm day Marj. decided she & Harry B would go so I got Queen ready and off they went after I had cut Harry B's back hair. While they were gone I cut some of the lawn, shaved and fed the baby and was just about to light the fire for dinner when Marj. H.B. & Glad Law came back Marj. had cooked up lots of provisions yesterday so was keen for company to help eat it and Aunty & Aunty Alice couldn't come as they are having Dad. & Enah down there to dinner celebrating their 20th wedding aniversary so Marj. went up after church and got Glad. to come. Just after dinner Mid Thompson and Essie B. drove out in Minnie's car and after a little visit and looking at the chickens Essie proposed going for a drive so we all piled into the car and Mid drove us up this road to the Provincial Highway
