Loaned Gretchen Haley Book “Viola” by Brainard with David’s inscription on “new” violet species.
63-86
Taking feldene* for arthritis.
Picked Blue Lake green beans in garden across road – 13 beans on one plant! Also cucumbers, zucchini & tomato. Had to wear my Alaska mosquito hat. Cooked beans with ham shank & potatoes. Made zucchini bread.
Gretchen Haley & friend Cindy stopped by to see gardens but mosquitoes drove them inside. She is divorced from Graull, lost her house, but now has it back on land contract.
Wrote letters to Kristi, Jed, David about visit of Mosely & Denny & my talk with Dean Francis Hazard of OSUM – Sent copies to Kathi & David.
David called – he has moved his office to the SRC** office as he does so much work for them. Thanked me for Karen’s birthday gift ($250) – wanted to make arrangements to pick up MCHS computer in Cols tomorrow when family comes up to make entries at State Fair.
Mary out for supper bringing the first Crum farm sweet corn. Also had my first regular tomato along with beans and cucumbers.
[*Feldene was later banned]
