Sun., April 26, 1936 - Mom, Ray, and I went to see "the place" this a.m. Heithold moved off last week. The house needs painting and papering. Only about 7 or 8 junk piles can be found around the place. Went home for dinner and back again in p.m. Howard there, too. We raked the garden and cleaned up one junk pile. Howard brought me to Niemans this eve.
Mon., April 27, 1936 - Cloudy this a.m. and clear this p.m. I read until 9:30 tonite. Irene and Helen came up to school tonite and brought some school books back.
Tues., April 28, 1936 - Rained this afternoon, even thundered some. The rain soaked in about an inch or two.
Obviously I am reading between the lines here, but did they put off deciding to get married until they had a place to live first? Makes sense to me. So, that's the first priority. Equally, or likely more important, was apparently the garden. Skip the other six or seven junk piles, let's get the garden ready! Gotta love it. Speaking of which, my little raised beds are all weeded, and three of the four have something planted in them even. Woo hoo! That's one of them in the photo (ignore the yuck in the background -- it's gone now) complete with four Savoy cabbage plants, one eggplant and two green pepper plants. Hay mulch courtesy of messy goats who waste lots of it.
