My father kept diaries for years. Sometimes he would call on the phone to ask us if we remembered what we were doing years and years ago; then he would proceed to remind us, as he read from his diary.
On this day:
1934 - Windy. Pretty stiff today. The end of another month. I wonder if I shall ever hear from Lindy Lu.
1935 - Wes (my mother's father - m) stayed with us last night and took the car home this morning. Charlie Chester (head of BIA, Forestry - m) and I went over to Schoolie. I am to get the camp.
1936 - I rode Baldy (one of Mom's horses - m) up to second lable (?), but no fish - too windy.
1937 - Walt White and I rode up to Charlie's place. Fished over the rim. Got 12. Was windy today.
1938 - Colds are better. Still making gates. Armstrong beat Barney Ross. (Note: I'm told Henry Armstrong was one of the best boxers EVER - m)
This is GREAT Mom!! I love it! Thank you for posting this!
