Took Jean up home for Supper Aunt Becky and Grandma Weir were there so we had a nice visit with them. Went down to Barkers shortly after ten but didn't get home until late as we had a great feed of ice cream.

A very busy day for me checking up tickets on my milk route and didn't get home from milk peddling till late. Worked on my books at night until I went to sleep and had to go to roost.
