It was very cold this morning and pretty chilly all day. We didn't do much this morning. About eleven o'clock we hooked up Joe and Ginger & went down town after a few household requisites. We were going to bring Aunty over with us to stay bit she was looking after the place for Aunty Maude wo had to be up at the store. Frank & Dick could not ride to-day so had their dinner at Huby's. After dinner Dad & I went over to Cruise's dsale and hung around till after four o'clock, without bidding on anything. They ere only about half through when we left, selling the house stuff.
