Mary stopped at Houghton Sulky and got check from Mark Bauer to cover Huber coloring books and stopped at Hemmerly’s to get check for Campbell candy. We left for Holmes County at 9:00 in my station wagon. Went East from Fredericktown on County Roads to Route 62 and then more County Roads- hit New Bedford even though some road numbers were changed. Picked Dan E. Yoder up and he guided us up to Highland printers near Berlin north of Route 39. Cost was 90 cents each as he had to use more expensive paper “Cougar Opaque”. Back through Charm and took Dan to dinner at Charm Restaurant. Autographed our copies of coloring book. To his casting building and had David and Harvey also autograph. They are so shy. Left about 2:15 and headed for Sandyville for Campbell’s. Postmaster helped us find proprietor after 40 years he still sounds like a Kentuckian. Candy about $2 a pound- bought five cases- $138- he showed us the dipping (encoating) machine & wrapping machine. Left about 4 with wagon loaded. Home about 6:00. Dry enough to mow so did upper lawn. Read “Fiona’s Will” until 4:30 a.m.

To Mary’s after going to Marion General Hospital for blood test. To Forest to Jesse’s new house on Route 37 West edge. Just her size, really nice 1960s house. She wanted us to identify Elm, Siberian Maple, Silver Ash, and Hickory trees!! To Restaurant on Route 30 for lunch. Bowl of broccoli soup is too much.
To Houston and Patterson cemeteries. Planted Hosta and geraniums on Rocky’s* grave and geraniums on Uncle Roy’s**.

Nice to get away for “Half to” work for a day.

In to Dr. Lowe at 11:00 to check wart on my back. Will remove it on July 21st. Sending me to lab for blood test to see why I have no stamina.
Picked up chicken dinner for lunch on deck.
Worked all P.M. on printing out cards showing all pledges, payments on Heritage Hall purchase. – Getting ready for phone-a-thon next week.
Used Roundup on brick sidewalks in front of house.
Mowed upper lawn with John Deere tractor. Mosquitoes in swarms, but not many biting me. Guess the vitamin B-1 does help.
Mary called- wants to go to Forest tomorrow to Cemetery & to see Jessie’s new house.
