Mon., February 22, 1937 - Went with Howard over to Chris & Clara's to help move. We packed fruit jars this morning. I stayed all night.
Tues., February 23, 1937 - Packing! & more packing. I went home with Howard tonite. We got a grant check for $16 today.
Wed., February 24, 1937 - Jo helped today at Clara's too. We were over to the new place & had dinner at 12:00. Cold & windy with occasional snow flurries.
That was a pretty good grant check, I think. I did a little looking online and it appears the buying power of $16 in 1937 equates to about $280 in 2018.
I will have to remember to ask where Uncle Chris and Aunt Clara were moving from and moving to.
I still like this photo of (l. to r.) Aunt Irene, Aunt Helen and Aunt Clara.
