May 1948

 May Day! May baskets everywhere. All the children made them. Aunt Dora helped. Very Pretty.

1st- Cannon fell down and cut his mouth. Maggie took him to docs and got two stitches in it. Says is won't scar as he gets older. Poor little guy is covered with poison oak. He looks miserable.

Graham and family were up. We all had a picnic at the house.

Weaver putting bricks up behind stove. Looks swell!

Fruit trees are doing fine. Covered with fruit. Will we get it, or will the birds? 

Zylpha may move to Porterville. John is going to live with her.

Granny Bea is under the weather. Too bad!

Johnny's birthday the 7th. 12 years old. He sure is a husky fellow. Had a crewcut too. Looks fine. Farmor gave him a watch. Bea gave him t-shirts and a watch. Jackie gave him money. We gave him a ten gallon hat and St Chris medal and key chain. More money from Meredith and Mikey. Bea made cake and sent ice cream. All camp inhabitants partook in the occasion.

Mother's day (9th). The children gave Maggie a box of chocolates and Weaver brought her a beautiful gardenia which she tucked in her flowing tresses. Ah me!

Weaver finished brick wall and snack bar in kitchen. Looks beautiful!!!

Zylpha's birthday (15th) 33 years old. Mom came up. Z. not going to Porterville. John has his own apt. and seems to like it.

November 1948

Weaver still up north. Gone to Oregon. I'm so lonesome and sad. It's almost unbearable. Thank God for Pop and Farmor. Should be home...
