Wed., August 28, 1935 - Put the apples away and cleaned up the house. Met Mom at the train tonite. Ray and Willie came back tonite at 12:00 from Dalton. Ray took Willie up to his home.
Thurs., August 29, 1935 - Old Settler's Picnic. Dora and George from Blair, Meta, Lyle, Annie, Ola and kids here for dinner. I was down town from 4:30 to 6:30. Had a dandy talk with Carrie Hansen. Howard was here this evening.
Fri., August 30, 1935 - We all got up late this morning. Mom, Ray and I went to Norfolk this p.m. Dora was visiting Grandmother all afternoon.
I wonder what Old Settlers was like in 1935. I am guessing Winside didn't rate a fancy schmancy ride like The Whip shown above, but isn't it neat? Look at the painting on the side of the cars. Wow. Photo from https://chuckmantorontonostalgia.wordpress.com.
