Not much to see here, but . . .


Tues., April 9, 1935 - Rained just about all afternoon.  We were going to practice tonite so we can give the play at Hoskins the 28th of this month, but the rain kept everyone at home.
Wed., April 10, 1935 - Rained this morning.  Went to Davis' tonite.  We played High Five after supper.  Raining when we went to bed.
Thurs., April 11, 1935 - Snowing this morning.  By this afternoon the snow had all melted.

Pretty tame stuff.

However, here in 2017 it is June 7th which means it is Grandpa and Grandma's wedding anniversary.  I will get to it in time, but I can't resist sharing now what Grandma wrote on that day:

Sun., June 7, 1936 - Nice warm sunshiny day.  Annie Miller came at 11:00.  Ray went to Wayne for my flowers.  He stopped for Howard and Helen on way back.  We went to the parsonage at 1:30, home again at 2:00.  After dinner went to Norfolk to have pictures taken.

Now, I know they got married that day but someone without that knowledge couldn't be certain from what Grandma wrote.  She does say "my flowers" instead of just "flowers" so one could suppose there was a special reason to be at the parsonage with flowers.  But she doesn't say marriage or wedding or ceremony or anything like that.  So matter of fact -- I am not surprised.
