I went down to our place
and helped finish shoveling
out wagon and road went
up to wilfreds for dinner
Came down and shoveled
off the cellar roof then
we came to town our
wagon was the first over
the road this spring. fine day

Forsythia ablaze. And some flowering trees, magnolia and something more delicate, apple or cherry maybe, clusters of little white flowers. Boys home because of teacher meetings. Watt stayed with them. I went to the office. Just three of us there. Very quiet and comradely. Temperatures up in the high 70's.
