Diary

March 2, 2010 - The weather in Warm Springs started out warm, reached the low 50's.  Then the wind started blowing, the chimes are clanging.  Who knows what it's bringing in.

1934 - Had to say goodbye to Sweets.  Wet today.  Rode to Agency with Billy Mac & to Portland with Mrs. R.  "Saw" Designs for Living".
1935 - Stayed at the Commercial last nite in Madras.  Got the 8:30 stage to Portland.  Kay & I saw "The Little colonel."  Stayed at the Byron.
1936 - Ed. F. isn't here yet so I took his place.  Was a keen day.  Rover weighed 61#. (Rover was a black collie.  I don't know when Dad got him, but he was still around during my lifetime.  My sister thinks he lived to be about 17.  I remember him from around 1950.  Mom told the funny story that Rover came with my Dad but when they wrestled, Rover was on Mom's side.  Rover also saved my life, well, I though so, anyway.  We were digging roots when I was no taller than a sagebrush.  Rover wandered off and I followed him.  I was crying since we were lost.  But, no-one else knew we were lost because they could see Rover's tail above the sagebrush.  He was leading me astray.  He was beautiful and very nice. m)
1937 - Walked down the river and Joe Estabrook picked us up.  Drove Chas. J. truck home.  They gave us fish & deer meat.
1938 - The snow is melting fast.  Listened to flood conditions in California over the radio.
