Saturday May 20th

Dad. and Enah paperd nearly all morning and I think are just about through. Frank and I went out about ten o'clock to work at the lane and have been there all day, Dad. helping us this after noon I threw the sods from the side into the middle on the east side right back and they followed cleaning out the loose earth and culling the east edge of the ditch on a hebel so the cattle wouldn't tramp up and break it. We are only working north of the waterhole as they couldnt plow through that with the team. After we did chores to night and before tea we ran the buggy down the lawn to the ditch and washed it. After tea Frank and I went down town and I got my hair cut. Sunny & nice. But breezy.

Sunday May 21st

Frank and I went to church this morning. After church we picked Quint up and then Aunty Alice and they both came over to dinner, on the bridge we overtook Dess and Dick also on their way to the farm. Enah was rather surprised at the dinner party although she expected Aunty Alice, Dick thought I would be staying down to dinner when he asked Dess, however we got on all right. This after noon I went for a drive with Marjorie. We went out to England's first as Glad Law had gone out there with Bertha for dinner but they had gone off for a drive so we went on by ourselves. Dick, Dess, Frank & Quint all went back to the woods and Dad. took Queen out with just the surcingle on her, he said she went fine. Beautiful day.

Monday May 22nd

It began to rain before seven this morning and has kept it up steadily all day. About eleven it seemed to let up a little so Dad. and I took Daisy May up to Ham Thompson's, we were up there quite awhile as we had to have a look at all the stock some of which looks fine and so by leaving about twelve we got into an old soaker of a shower so got properly soused. We spent the after noon in the house. Dad. helped Enah put down carpets and Frank cleaned up over the woodshed. I sorted out all the Farmers' Advocate's. There were about seven years of them and we got them all sorted and tied in bundles and packed in a tea box. Frank has seventeen ducks out and has to feed them every two hours. He expects a lot more soon
