Went over to Wally’s room about 3 and we hiked along the River from King to Lane. I sketched some while Wally gathered wood. Then went across the river to the Big Bear store for wieners and buns and drinks and potato chips. Waited until the fire died down before we cooked them. Delicious.
Got home about 10:00 plenty tired.

Up early and trimmed grass with scissors around trees, bushes, flower beds. Made them look lots better.
After Daddy and Mary came from garden we took weiners and bacon and cheese along Scioto north of prospect for our supper. Then on road East of there and got some wild flowers to transplant. Home and so to bed.

Quite profitable, typing chain letters. Got some chocolate bars and a coke out of it. Bill has one now where the return is 24 1/2 pints of whiskey.
Walt came to the bus station to see me off. Brought a box of candy. We’ve been going together two years today. Bus man didn’t want to take my ticket I use it going the same way twice.
Things growing at home.

Well Bill finally hit on a dime Chain Letter. It’s about played out now. The idea is you send a dime to the top name, cross it off, add your own at the bottom and as it works up you’ll get $1,759.30 if everybody keeps it going. But there aren’t enough people.
Got two pair of hose and some panties at the Boston Store this evening.
Been drawing landscape and flowers this evening
