Fri., July 26, 1935 - Waved Mom's hair this a.m. Felt punk today and didn't do much of anything. Tonite we went to the shower for Margaret Christensen Kallstrom. They were married last Saturday. She got a lot of nice gifts.
Sat., July 27, 1935 - Hot again today. Mom went down town tonite. Howard came up and we went for a ride.
Sun., July 28, 1935 - Roxie, Peggy, and Ardath came up this morning before we were up, that is about 9:15 and left at 11:00. So we didn't go to church. Today seemed like the hottest day this year.
Several new names here -- new to me anyway. I do not know who Roxie and Peggy and Ardath are. I did find out the Margaret Christensen Kallstrom has some great names connected to her. Through the magic of the internet, I discovered her full name was Kiersten Margaretha Christensen and she was the daughter of Thorvald and Elsie Alvina Pedersen Christensen. Her groom was Gilbert Waldo "Gabe" Kallstrom. Interestingly, she died in 2005, just like Grandma. And sure enough, the information I found says they were married on July 20, 1935 in Wayne.
For no particular reason at all, here's a photograph of a young and smiling Grandpa. If I'm not mistaken, that same grinding stone ended up at Grandma and Grandpa's place in town. Or maybe one very much like it.
