November 5, 1992: Has been cloudy all week and cold. Howard had the pickup "tuned up" -- oil changed, new filters and spark plugs, etc. -- all to the tune of $69.60.
November 8 & 9, 1992: Warm enough to melt almost all the snow. Ground is black again. Have passed the halfway mark in piecing the Storm at Sea quilt."
Hmmm. I just noticed something. Grandma tends to note the costs of house repairs and mower repairs and now the tune up for the pickup, but I haven't seen her note the costs of quilting fabric and supplies. Funny!
Aunt Helen had been having a rough patch there. We know she pulled through, but she was such a little thing that her being sick seems doubly hard on her.
We've seen other photos from this same day with these same people in them, but I thought this was a particularly good one of everyone. Except maybe Uncle Raymond who was caught in mid-chuckle it looks like.
