Sun., August 16, 1936 - Had the dinner with Bess, Dorathea, Irene, Raymond, Helen, Alma and John B. here. Everything just fine. Pete's stopped awhile late this afternoon.
Mon., August 17, 1936 - Howard away bailing. Went over to the folks. I ironed while they packed. Helen & Mrs. I. are taking Irene to Sunol tomorrow. They're going to visit relatives in Colorado, too. Stayed home while Howard went to Lodge.
Tues., August 18, 1936 - Went to town to wash. On my way home Stopped to see Florence. Emelia, Marcella, and Dallas were there.
There is a Sunol, California but, after confirming with Mom, I can say with confidence that Grandma is talking about Sunol, Nebraska. It is in the Panhandle and therefore, close to Colorado. And, Aunt Irene taught there.
I am not confused about that, but now I have Grandma calling her grandparents and her in-laws "the folks" so I may be confused every now and then about that.
Photo is of Sunol, Nebraska. There's not much to say about the town, I suppose. The population as per the 2010 census was 73. It was platted in 1909 and a post office was established at Sunol in 1910, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1973.
